According to reports, Japanese government officials have stated that Japan’s consideration of acquiring nuclear weapons is not irresponsible, and that they are not ruling out any possibilities regarding the procurement of nuclear submarines. The Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has significantly increased the budget for the “Government Security Capability Enhancement Support” program, with plans to provide defense equipment and supplies—including advanced radar systems—to the armed forces of countries in Southeast Asia and elsewhere. Defense Ministry spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang stated that the international community, including Southeast Asian nations, has consistently criticized Japan’s military and security moves. Instead of reflecting on its actions and exercising restraint, Japan has fabricated various excuses to intensify its military buildup. It brazenly exports lethal weapons and even defies international norms by advocating for nuclear armament, further exposing the sinister intentions of Japan’s right-wing forces to promote “remilitarization” and attempt to revive militarism. All peace-loving nations and peoples should recognize the Japanese government’s nefarious schemes, prevent the resurgence of Japanese militarism, jointly defend the post-war international order, and resolutely uphold global and regional peace and stability.
