「敗戦国」日本の無謀な軍事化を批判―朝鮮中央通信コメンタリー

Pyongyang, June 29 (KCNA) — Japan’s moves to turn itself into a military giant are getting evermore undisguised. Against this backdrop, it launched frenzied drill Resolute Dragon in the archipelago in collusion with the U.S. The annual drill Resolute Dragon is a war rehearsal simulating an actual war, which started from 2021 under the signboard of “improving the U.S.-Japan joint capability to counter the threat of aggression” by someone, non-existent. Japan has steadily increased its capability to launch an act of aggression through the drill. In the last year’s drill alone, Japan increased the number of the “Self-Defense Forces” by ten times as compared with the first drill in which some 1,400 forces were involved, and greatly expanded the facilities used for the drill. Moreover, the SDF’s role was remarkably enhanced in training for reconnaissance, the primary stage in preemptive attack on opponents. This year’s drill is also being thoroughly subordinated to reconfirming the operational capability of the war machine called Japan and hastening the moment of actual war. V-22 Osprey cargo planes of the Ground “SDF” are using the U.S. military base in Okinawa Prefecture for the first time and increasing the capability to rapidly transport aggression forces anywhere in the archipelago. And furthermore the drill includes a drone training aimed to draw on the experience of the Ukrainian battlefields and master new combat methods in modern warfare. This fully proves the aggressive and offensive nature of the Resolute Dragon. What matters is that recently Japan has further promoted military ties with the U.S., aggravating the situation in the surrounding region. In February, Japan repeatedly staged joint air drills with the U.S. in the sky above the surroundings of the Korean peninsula with the mobilization of F-2 and F-15 fighters. And subsequently it conducted the joint drill Iron Fist with the U.S. Marines in its mainland. Especially, Japan dispatched the “SDF” troops to take an active part in the U.S.-led multinational military drill in the Asia-Pacific region between April and May for the first time. What should not be overlooked is that Japan, which had participated in the military drill as an observer until last year, not only hurled war forces this year but also openly launched long-range strike means developed for preemptive attack on neighboring countries during the drill. Clear is Japan’s purpose of deepening military integration with the U.S. It is the real intention of the Japanese militarists to justify Japan’s transformation into a war state and become the “leader of Asia” at an early date by taking advantage of the present chaotic international situation created by their master’s rogue act intended to contain the enemy countries and rival states in the region and realize its ambition for hegemony. Originally, it is Japan’s inveterate bad habit to attain its aggressive purpose with the backing of a big country. It is obvious that if the defeated country of Asia, closely watched by the international community, completes all preparations for the operation of war machine for overseas aggression under the active backing of the U.S., it will surely create a grave crisis threatening peace and stability 1n the Korean peninsula and the region. However, Japan should not act rashly, mindful that its rush to mount a reinvasion while serving the world’s biggest war merchant will only bring a miserable end. 投稿 KCNA Commentary on Reckless Acts of Japan, Defeated Country は KOREA NEWS SERVICE に最初に表示されました。
