Pyongyang, September 17 (KCNA) — Japan is getting desperate to realize its wild ambition for hegemony.
It has frequently dispatched warships of the “Self-Defense Forces” (SDF) overseas under the deceptive pretext of protecting civilian vessels and frantically staged various war exercises to secure the capability for fighting a war.
Shortly ago, Japan kicked off largest-ever actual maneuvers involving 17 000 troops in 16 key points of Hokkaido under the pretext of protecting a remote island.
Continued dispatch of SDF forces overseas and various military exercises are a part of Japan’s undisguised moves for militarization. Therefore, this brings to light the wild ambition of the war criminal state for aggression which has gone to extremes.
Militarization in Japan has reached the final phase for igniting a war.
Japan is banned from having the right of belligerency, the right to participate in a war and a regular army as it is an aggressor country and war criminal nation which turned the Asian continent into a sea of blood in the last century. But, it has emerged as a military giant stretching out its tentacles of aggression to any parts of the world and even to outer space and cyber space.
It has massively developed and introduced dual-use military hardware for attack and defense under the signboard of “exclusive defense” and reorganized SDF in attack formation through various kinds of military exercises for aggression.
In recent years, Japan has more desperately resorted to reckless military action while talking about defense and recapture of a remote island. It openly says that its massive deployment of striking forces in key points targets its neighboring countries.
What should not be overlooked is that it seeks to shape a new security policy legitimizing its possession of the “ability to attack enemy base” after the withdrawal of its plan for deploying U.S.-made Aegis Ashore ground-based interceptor missile system.
The policy is little short of insistence on possession of the capacity for making a preemptive strike as it calls for attacking and destroying a base in “enemy state” with bomber and missile.
Japan has the military muscle strong enough to go to war, which exceeds the minimum of necessity.
Establishment of the new security policy means the completion of its full preparation for reinvasion.
In case Japan, which has not yet got rid of its ill fame as an enemy state, launches overseas aggression again, the world will suffer more terrible misfortune and pain than those it suffered in the past.
The international community should never remain a passive onlooker to Japan’s reckless moves for overseas expansion. -0-
