[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida recently accepted an exclusive interview with the US media and made it clear that "Ukraine today may be Asia tomorrow".

Speaking of concerns about China's military invasion of Taiwan, Kishida also emphasized that "one-sided use of force to change the status quo will never be allowed."

According to an exclusive interview published by the "Washington Post" on the 11th, Prime Minister Kishida stated in the interview that "Taiwan's peace and stability are extremely important to the international community."

In fact, at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting held in Bangkok last November, Kishida expressed to Chinese President Xi Jinping that he attaches great importance to the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait.

"Today's Ukraine may be tomorrow's Asia," Prime Minister Kishida said in an exclusive interview: "No one side will be allowed to use force to change the status quo." At the end of last year, the Kishida government issued a new version of the "National Security Strategy" with three documents. But it is clear from the document that the Kishida government is focusing on "China's possible aggression against Taiwan."

The new version of the "National Security Strategy" has reorganized Japan's military deployment, and will transfer a large number of military forces to "Japan's southwestern islands adjacent to Taiwan." Japan's huge Self-Defense Force is ready to rush to support Taiwan-related operations at any time."

The "Washington Post" pointed out that, ironically, Prime Minister Kishida has always been a representative of the "doves" of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, which is enough to show that the military policy he advocates is almost fully supported in Japan.

At the end of the interview, Kishida said: "National leaders in crisis are often involuntary and unable to choose." This means that from Kishida's point of view, Japan's fate and the security of the Taiwan Strait are obviously inseparable.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida (pictured left) signed the "Mutual Access Agreement" with the United Kingdom a few days ago, and military cooperation has been upgraded again.
