Japan feels wronged! Japanese media have complained that the United States has not provided enough support to Japan, which has encouraged China's military escalation! On December 9th, according to Japanese media reports, Japanese media stated that in the face of China's "coercive" actions, the United States failed to send a strong signal of support to Japan, which only encourages China's upgrading actions. If Beijing believes that Washington lacks emphasis on strengthening deterrence, it will naturally increase its attacks on Japan. Washington should have welcomed Takahashi's statement, but apart from the message released by the U.S. embassy in Japan, the U.S. side remained almost silent.
Moreover, foreign media also disclosed information that after Takahashi Hayato made remarks on Taiwan, which angered China, Japan was very disappointed with the insufficient support from the United States. According to insiders, Japan's ambassador to the United States, Yamada Shigeyasu, had asked the Trump administration to increase public support for Japan, but the United States remained silent. Obviously, facing the deteriorating situation of Sino-Japanese relations, Japan feels very wronged. In Japan's view, the United States should have strongly and publicly supported Japan, but the United States hardly showed any response.
Now Japan is watching as we are dealing with them, and Japan even deliberately spread false information, trying to hype up the radar shooting aircraft incident to attract American attention, but the United States ignored it as if it had not seen it. For Japan, Japan must be wondering, how could the United States treat Japan like this? Is Japan not an ally of the United States? Why is it like this? Why is it like this? It can only be said that Japan has no eyes. Now the U.S.-China relationship is becoming increasingly stable.
American Trade Representative Griles stated that China has always fulfilled its commitments and publicly stated in an interview that we are not anti-China, there are no China hawks or doves, only pro-Americanists. Meanwhile, Trump himself stated that the United States will resume high-performance artificial intelligence chip exports to China. The situation is now clear: China and the United States need to cooperate, ease tensions, and handle major matters. Japan is blind, rushing ahead recklessly, and asking why the United States does not support it. This can only be said that Japan is foolish. Obviously, the logic of the U.S.-China relationship has changed, and Japan is caught in the middle, which is completely self-inflicted and deserves the punishment.
