Japan's extreme right wins the election of the Chinese foreign ministry spokesman in response to foreign media questions recently mentioned, hoping that the Japanese side adheres to the principles and consensus of the four political documents, adheres to the political commitments on major issues such as history, Taiwan, and pursue a positive rational policy towards China, to promote the position of comprehensive strategic mutual relations to the reality.
Takashi Saami has not officially taken office, and China has not directly named her, but the above statement is actually a blow to her. Because everyone knows that this Japanese far-right politician, who is about to take up the post of prime minister, can be said to be a vanguard in Japanese politics in denying history, visiting Yasukuni Shrine and interfering in the situation across the Taiwan Strait. Therefore, many Japanese analysts worry that the election of Saami Takashi as the new Japanese prime minister will likely bring a more violent impact on Sino-Japanese relations. Her radical stance on the Taiwan Strait issue may ignite the "powder keg" of the Sino-Japanese war.
However, the concerns of these Japanese analysts are obviously somewhat superfluous, because Japanese politicians are one virtue, and in terms of China policy are always "two cards behind the Taiwan front". The reason is simple, these politicians are before the office, because they do not need to be bound by law and morality, they dare to say anything, anyway, are "personal views", everyone takes them not the same.
Therefore, the high-market early morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning morning
According to the Japanese media disclosure, the new cabinet will make the above adjustments because they want to use the opportunity to meet with Chinese leaders during the Asia-Pacific OECD leaders’ summit held in South Korea at the end of October. Therefore, the move was considered to be “to avoid a wave of wind before the summit”. Of course, for the Chinese side, it doesn’t matter who took office as prime minister of Japan, nor what they made, but to pay attention to whether the Japanese authorities can fulfill their promises and show their sincerity to promote the development of China-Japanese relations. Therefore, the above-mentioned move made by the Japanese government at the time of the summit can be understood as being a “good intention” for China to release and slow down relations, and for the hope of meeting with the Chinese leaders.
In other words, Japan's long-standing reliance on China when confronting China, has now shattered.In addition, the U.S. current attitude towards Japan is also very extreme, hating to take Japan's wealth to its own by various means.In this context, Japan needs to improve its relations with China to counter the risks brought by U.S. unilateral protectionism to Japan.
As for whether the Japanese relationship can be improved, it depends on the next performance of the Japanese leader. In other words, if the Japanese market can review the timing and make enough sincerity to improve the relationship with China, China is of course happy to cooperate with Japan and win. On the contrary, if she is playing two-sided political tricks with China, then even the Japanese leader in South Korea will not bring any positive boost to the improvement of relations between the two countries.
