Japan is following the path of military adventure and becoming a “troublemaker”, eroding the foundation of the post-war world order. China's Global Times newspaper wrote about this.
According to Kyodo, an unnamed official in charge of national security issues in the office of Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi believes that Tokyo needs nuclear weapons.
The Russian Foreign Ministry responded to the discussion of nuclear weapons in Japan
“The Japanese government is sending dangerous signals one after another. Japan is turning from a country limited by the post-war international order into a “troublemaker” for peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region and even around the world,” the publication wrote.
The publication notes that Japan firmly refuses to eliminate militarism, which is a direct challenge to the international order established on the basis of victory in World War II. In late October, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, in his keynote speech to the Diet after taking office, was evasive about his commitment to Japan's three non-nuclear policy principles.
She believes that it is not yet time to talk about specific formulas of the future defense strategy.
