@mediaunlock: Why did Japan's new PM spark alarm in Asia? Why did Japan's new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi trigger such shock with her recent remarks on Taiwan? Is China really "overreacting", as some Western critics say? Is Takaichi trying to please the US? We sat down with Victor Gao, chair professor at Soochow University, to unpack the historical, legal and geopolitical stakes behind Takaichi's provocative remarks. Key quotes from the interview: ·"Prime Minister Takaichi is in violation of that constitutional provision. In that sense, she's a criminal under Japanese law." · "How can Japan today imagine it can involve itself militarily against China? That will be the most serious crime you can ever think about. " · "The Americans are sophisticated enough to reach the conclusion that Japanese fascism should never be allowed to raise its dangerous head because it will not only be a menace to China. It will be a menace to the American people." #InsightsUnlocked

China has been waiting this moment for revenge bro 😂😂

andor :

Vaulence :

China is a victor country like in what war? Japan surrendered to Us not China 😂

allisonteng :

Japan have been quietly re-arming and strengthening their military for a long time. Japan navy is already the second most powerful in Asia. They now have half as many warships as Chinese navy. The militarization of Japan is a real threat to it's neighbours. Everybody must wake up.

HAJI Ph.D :

as a local Japanese I can assure there's no way Japan is going to challenge china. we're not in 1940s anymore. younger gens know that Japan is absolutely no match against China. they know the real world far more than the older gens who still rely on newspapers and tv.

paul boh :

Japan pushing for war again. why china internal politics with Taiwan have to do with Japan? trying to grasp any excuses again to invade china?

Ma'amJufraida :

CHINA IS NOW THE MOST POWERFUL NATION IN TERMS OF ECONOMY AND MILITARY.

Lateef Donoso :

China will never forget what Japan did in 1931 💔 as will the world.

Kiluba Nelson :

This guy is dreaming, Japan is the most technologically advanced nation in the world and if Japan starts to grow it's military, it will not take more than 5 years for its strength to triple china's military.

MAR83 :

China owes Japan a slap 😉

alejandroawa6 :

you really think china is powerfull come on😂

Veracious report :

The reality is that the U.S is trying to use Japan ( its colony) as a proxy to start a war in the South China Sea. The U.S doesn’t want direct confrontation with China and it is wiling and capable of sacrificing Japan and the Philippines just so that they can weaken China economicallly through a protracted proxy war with the intention of also damaging China’s pristine reputation in the global community. We must remember that the U.S has always destroyed its peer and rival. The U.S doctrine is about being the only power in the world. China needs to navigate through this web of deceit and ring of fire in the South China Sea with extreme foresight and play to win this game of Thrones. The East remembers. The Global south is solely behind China 🇨🇳

中国が台湾に武力侵攻しなければ日本から武力を使うことは絶対起こりません。

lordofwater :

Revival of Imperialism Japan that Brutally killed 35 million civilians in China during WW2 Plus In 1972 peace treaty China gave up war reparation on the agreement Japan needs to agree One China and Japan agreed and Signed. Takaichi breached the agreement. Very untrustworthy.

Law :

I’ll never understand how Germany and Japan came out of this post World War II smelling like Rose

eddietang6 :

Never start a war—especially in Asia. This continent has endured immense suffering for far too long. Let us choose peace and unite to thrive, so we can make Asia great again. When Europe descends into chaos, who truly benefits? When both Europe and Asia are engulfed in turmoil, who gains? Reflect deeply before igniting conflict. The consequences are irreversible. We may never have another opportunity to rebuild and develop our nations. Let us prioritize harmony, progress, and shared prosperity for the future of Asia and the world.

Otso :

but Taiwan they don't like china 😳

Terence Wong :

well said Prof Gao!! this is the best explainatokm and interpretation.

Lemon9 :

Alec Nelsson :

Why Japan care about Taiwan can someone explain???

Angelinelaine :

Fully agreed with Prof Gao. If Japan were to become militarily-involved with China again, Japan will also become a threat again to the rest of her Asian neighbours and not to mention, the negative economic impact to the whole world.

BastyBoy🇮🇹 :

China is shaking 😂

Verial☪️🍉🔻 :

Japan 0 nukes vs china 300+ nukes
