Statement by Lieutenant General of Chinese military think tank
By the 9th, He Lei, former vice president (lieutenant general) of the Academy of Military Sciences, a Chinese military think tank, gave an exclusive interview to Kyodo News and clarified that he ``doesn't want war, but I'm not afraid of it'' regarding the Senkaku Islands in Okinawa Prefecture. Personally, I am concerned about this statement by the lieutenant general.When I asked him about the possibility of unifying Taiwan and seizing the Senkakus at the same time based on China's claim that the Senkakus are part of the "Taiwan Province," he replied, "It is not logical. If you do that, then yes,” he said without denying it.
Senkaku issue shelved
Taiwan was the first to claim sovereignty over Uotsuri Island. Since Taiwan was in June 1971 and China was in September of the same year, it appears that China hastily raised its hand to the international community three months later. During this period, a dispute over the representative government was being held at the United Nations, and the United Nations Resolution on Albania was adopted in October 1971, which established the People's Republic of China as the representative government of China. In response to this, Japan established diplomatic relations with China in 1972, but it is said that there was an agreement to shelve the issue of the Senkaku Islands so that it would not become an issue by not making it an issue.
Violation of territorial waters started with nationalization
The graph shown shows the number of territorial sea violations by China, and it can be seen that there were almost no cases up until 2012. It began with the nationalization of the Senkaku Islands by the Noda administration in September 2012. In other words, China's reasoning is that Japan has made an issue that had been shelved. They argue that for this reason, China will also openly make territorial claims. Before that, it is Japanese territory in the first place.

The Noda administration could not withstand criticism and nationalized the country.
The circumstances surrounding this nationalization by the Noda administration were so pathetic that they released the captain of a Chinese fishing boat that rammed the Japan Coast Guard for unknown reasons, and were unable to withstand public criticism. At the time, Governor Tanigaki argued that if he was going to be released, he should have just deported him on the spot instead of arresting him in the first place.
Read it together
Under the United Nations resolution on Albania, China's representative government becomes the People's Republic of China - national representation as a permanent member of the United Nations Security
National representation rights claimed by both sides
Taiwan withdraws from the United Nations as a result of this resolution
Japan and the US tried to prevent Taiwan's expulsion from the UN
Taiwan is just a common name
US supports Taiwan's membership in international organizations
China expands interpretation of Albania resolution
The issue of one China began when the Republic of China (Taiwan) and the People's Republic of China fought over the right to represent China as a permanent member of the United Nations at the United Nations following a civil war. At that time, the Republic of China was a member of the United Nations as a permanent member of the United Nations.
As a result of the 1971 Albania Resolution recognizing the People's Republic of China as the representative member state of the United Nations, the Republic of China withdrew from the United Nations. In advance, Japan and the United States tried to persuade Taiwan to voluntarily decline the right to represent China, but Chiang Kai-shek was not convinced.
One China claimed not only China but also Taiwan. Taiwan was the first to claim the Senkaku Islands before China.
In response to the Albania resolution, the United States proposed a dual representation resolution and Japan proposed an important issue resolution against expulsion to the United Nations. As a result, the Albania Resolution was passed, and the People's Republic of China was to take over the power of representation, eliminating Taiwan's seat.
The problem might have been different if Taiwan had withdrawn its representation rights and applied for recognition as a separate country at the same time.
What we now call Taiwan is not the official name of the country; its official name is the Republic of China. Taiwan is a common name that means the name of the region. At the Olympic Games, it was called Chinese Taipei, and Japan's NHK called it Tiwan, which became a hot topic, but the country's name itself is internationally connected to the United Nations issue.
Based on the above circumstances, the United Nations has simply recognized the People's Republic of China as the representative government of China, and since the Republic of China has withdrawn from the United Nations, this does not mean that the United Nations does not recognize the country.
The United States has said it will support Taiwan's participation in international organizations. U.S. Republican Rep. Jim Risch said that China is expanding the interpretation of the Albania resolution.
Conversely, the basis for China's insistence on excluding Taiwan from the international community is the 1971 Albania resolution.
The United States has criticized China for abusing the Albania resolution by expanding its interpretation. China is pressuring other countries to prevent Taiwan from participating in international organizations.
Senkaku Islands linked to Taiwan
A statement by a lieutenant general from a Chinese military think tank places the Senkakus as Taiwan's responsibility. If the one country, two systems principle is followed, Senkaku will become Taiwan. Xi Jinping has repeatedly stated that Taiwan's independence is a trigger for an invasion of Taiwan.
Argument for entrusting the Senkaku issue to Taiwan
The Taiwan emergency included the Senkaku issue within the Japan emergency, and there were many questions about how the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty would be activated if China publicly stated that it would maintain navigation through the Taiwan Strait and there was no attack on the Senkaku Islands. This time, China has publicly stated that the Senkaku Islands are part of it. In other words, the only objective is the small island of Senkaku, which is part of Taiwanese territory, and the question is whether the United States will participate in the war just for this island.
The Japanese side responded to this request.
Now that China has made it clear that it will extend its reach to the Senkaku Islands in the event of a Taiwanese emergency, how will the Japanese government respond? Would you go and rent even 10 pandas? My thinking is almost the same as that student who yelled at the SEALDs meeting that I would drink alcohol and become better friends with him.

The Last Emperor who appeared at the Tokyo Trials The last emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the first emperor of Manchukuo looked at the times.
The Last Emperor appeared at the Tokyo Trial
The Xinhai Revolution was a Chinese revolution supported by Japan
A revolution that had no choice but to join forces with the old dynasty forces
Russia's hand extended to the continent and peninsula
The idea of harmony between the five tribes of Manchukuo
The last emperor of the Qing Dynasty was Aixinjueluo Puyi. He was also called the Last Emperor and appeared at the Tokyo Trials. There, in front of GHQ, he praised Sun Yat-sen's Xinhai Revolution as an innovative move for China, and said that the Qing bureaucracies at the time were deeply corrupt.
The Xinhai Revolution was a Sino-Japanese joint revolution that was supported by important Japanese figures to modernize China under the rule of the former dynasty. Sun Yat-sen is Sun Yat-sen. Nakayama is a Japanese name, and it was the name of his time in exile in Japan. Puyi understood this very well.
Manchuria was a territory of the Qing Dynasty that Russia came to take over. The Qing Dynasty was a Chinese dynasty founded by the Manchu people, that is, by Puyi's ancestors.
The Xinhai Revolution had to rely on Yuan Shikai's help to suppress the Beiyang warlords, and it cannot be denied that it was a half-hearted revolution, so Puyi's conditions of residence in the Forbidden City were revoked and he was exiled.
The conflict between Russia's interests in Manchuria and the conflict on the Korean Peninsula progressed simultaneously. Russia thought it would be a good idea to colonize China, the Korean Peninsula, and Japan in the same way as Northeast Asian nations.
The Russo-Japanese War not only stopped the Russian colonization of the Korean Peninsula, but also eliminated Russian interests from Manchuria and led to the establishment of Manchukuo. Puyi then became the first emperor of Manchukuo.
Puyi, a Manchurian, was expelled from the Forbidden City and ascended the throne again in his homeland. Many workers came and went from the Korean peninsula to Manchuria, and many people from the Korean peninsula immigrated to cultivate the fertile land of Manchuria. Manchukuo's spirit of ``Five Tribes Harmony'' is an ideal that was built on the reality that these ethnic groups coexist: Japan, Korea, Manchuria, Mongolia, and the Han Chinese.
It is said that Japan was carrying out plunder and genocide on the Korean Peninsula. It's strange.
Korea has the largest ODA per population.China Appreciates Japan's Economic Aid
According to Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ODA to China totaled about 3.9 trillion yen from 1979 to 2016.More than 60% of China's foreign aid is from Japan.Shanghai Pudong International Airport, Beijing Capital International Airport, Lanzhou, Wuhan, and Xi'an airports were also built with Japanese aid.In addition, 5,200 kilometers of railways, Beijing sewage treatment plants, Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital, Beijing Subway, Chongqing Railway, and major ports have been built and expanded.
Since the 2000s, JICA has been training more than 15,000 managers and HIDA has been training more than 22,000.Former General Secretary Deng Xiaoping and former General Secretary Hu Jintao officially thanked each other.Recently, Deputy Spokesman Hua Chunying thanked Japan, saying, "Japan's ODA has contributed greatly to China's reform and opening-up and economic development," adding, "We will discuss new cooperative relations with Japan."
Although there are territorial issues in Sino-Japanese relations, the Chinese government officially acknowledges that Japan has contributed greatly to China's development.
The amount of ODA to South Korea is 650.2 billion yen, but the total value of $500 million, including free financial cooperation and private cooperation, is said to be 2-3 trillion yen.Compared to China, South Korea has the most aid in terms of ODA costs per population.
Japan apologized to South Korea several times during the annexation of South Korea and Japan, but South Korea did not remember.I don't think Japan remembers being thanked by South Korea, but this is more true.On the contrary, after the end of ODA program for South Korea in 1990, the problem of recruiting workers and Japanese Military comfort woman grew.Is it just my imagination that they seem to have started after end of ODA.
Since the end of ODA to South Korea, the anti-Japanese movement in South Korea has become popular.Is this a coincidence?
What do the People's Liberation Army think of U.S. aircraft carriers and landing attack ships?
Since the inauguration of the Biden administration, the U.S. has not only put pressure on China to restrict support for Chinese companies, but has also frequently dispatched military aircraft and warships to China to provoke them.
According to the Global Times, the U.S. has deployed the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson, the landing attack ship Esax, and the U.S. landing attack ship U.S.aircraft carriers Lincoln and Reagan.The Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine Nevada also made an unusual appearance at a U.S. naval base in Guam.
It is unusual for the U.S. to deploy so much military force around China, giving the impression of dignity.Professor Wei Jung-woo of the Center for American Research at Fudan University said in an interview, "The U.S. is sending strategic nuclear submarines and aircraft carrier warships to the Indo-Pacific region to demonstrate its "power" and exercise military deterrence."
The U.S. is not the only military power in the world, but the U.S. is wrong in targeting China.Defense Ministry spokesman Oh Gyeom explained at a regular briefing on January 27 that the PLA's military training in 2022, emphasizing the need to strengthen military training and strengthen enemy suppression training and maintain full-time standby.We will accelerate the integration of training and practice so that we can fight at any time."
The behind-the-scenes stories of "the front line of military struggle" and "fight the enemy and train " are clear.The Global Times quoted an analyst as saying, "There have been experts so far."Despite the fact that the PLA took advantage of the opportunity to train against foreign troops, many netizens still regard it as "respectful."However, it has been confirmed that the Liberation Army is "using foreign troops to train."The U.S. did not expect such provocations around China to be the best training partner for the Liberation Army.This is to make up for the lack of combat experience.The U.S. is really shooting itself in the leg.
It seems that the U.S. military is a practical training partner for the People's Liberation Army's lack of practical experience.I don't understand what it means.
Can China's encirclement aim to divide China? - Cut off tax revenue for the increasingly obese Chinese Communist Party.
What is the population of China
Revival of the issue of national self-determination
Can China's autonomous regions become independent
China creates its own concept of ethnicity and promotes Hanization policy
The Uighur issue spreads to other autonomous regions
China became a Jain nation
China's weakness is its large territory
If Japan, the US, and Europe do not create a network of encirclement of China and seal it off, it will be a disaster
China is said to have a population of 1.4 billion, but the actual population is around 90 million. 90 million people is the number of Communist Party members. Isn't it possible to think of the other 1.3 billion people as workers ruled by the Chinese Communist Party, rather than citizens, assuming democratic values?
The definition of the right to national self-determination has once again become a theme. Russia's invasion of Ukraine also uses this idea as a shield. Going back in time, the Nazis also began invading neighboring countries under the pretext of protecting Germans. On the other hand, it also functioned as the right of Asian countries to become independent from colonial rule, and under international law, independence from colonial rule was an exercise of the legitimate right to self-determination.
China has various autonomous regions, all of which are inhabited by different ethnic groups. Uighur, Tibet, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, etc. During a question session in the Japanese Diet about the right to self-determination for the Uyghur Autonomous Region, former Prime Minister Koizumi was ambiguous as to whether the right to self-determination advocated by the United Nations included the right to independence (within a non-colonial state). It cites examples such as the UN's adoption of Palestine's right to independence.
In other words, since this is what China is afraid of, it is eager to implement the Hanification policy. Han people have no relation to bloodline, and have established their own ethnic definition that if you accept Chinese style, culture, and customs, you are a Han ethnic group. On top of that, it is said that they are forcibly brainwashing the Uyghurs, calling them educational facilities.
If the Uighurs were to take up arms and exercise their right to self-determination and start a war of independence, international public opinion would once again be influenced by the United Nations' definition of the right to self-determination. Depending on the outcome, there is a strong possibility that this will spread to Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Zhuang, and other areas. If you add the population of China's autonomous regions, it will be about 100 million people. However, this ethnic area is also an important resource area for China. What would happen if they left? Taiwan is difficult here. It is difficult to say that Taiwan is a separate ethnic group from China.
At the same time, China is causing border problems in all directions. You can do whatever you want in the Spratly Islands. However, the other side of the coin is that China is completely surrounded by surrounding countries and regions that are frustrated with the Chinese Communist Party. The only reason why the surrounding areas are in suspense is because of the threat of China's 1.4 billion people. No. China has 90 million people. What would happen if you thought about it?.
China's military would be weakened if it was dispersed over a wide area. What would happen if other surrounding areas also started border disputes in the event of a Taiwanese emergency? Taiwan is no fun if it only defends Taiwan. Taiwan should take control of Fujian Province. This is to create a buffer zone. The Spratly Islands should be controlled together with the Philippines and Vietnam. Then, they should conquer Yunnan Province and liberate the Zhuang Autonomous Region. This is to create a buffer zone. India will control Kashmir. And we should take control of Sichuan Province. What will happen if Uighurs and Tibet go into a war of independence?
I would like Japan to work with the United States to engage in strategic diplomacy to seriously create a network of encirclement of China. The Chinese Communist Party is a monster that controls 1.3 billion people and siphons off tax revenue. The country receives 13 times more tax revenue than a country with 100 million people and 26 times more than a country with 50 million people, making it bloated. Where in the world is there a political party with 90 million people?
They simply refer to their area of control as a nation; they call it internal affairs. If a conflict were to start in all directions in the surrounding areas, the 1.3 billion people would have no independence in the first place and would be scattered and rendered powerless. The only way to seal this monster away is to divide the country and cut off tax revenue.
What China wants to get is more than necessary.Taiwan called them as
Chinese culture is one where extravagance is a virtue. It is hospitality to provide more food than you can eat, and leaving some leftover food means that you are full, and conversely, eating all of it means that you didn't have enough food, which is a cultural difference. I'm surprised.
When Japan withdrew from the war and the Republic of China (KMT) came to Taiwan, it was expressed as ``the dogs left and the pigs came.'' The meaning is that dogs (in Japan) are noisy but protect the house. It means that the pig (KMT) will only eat up. It is said that Taiwanese received Japanese education during the Japanese colonial period, and were taught the concepts of moderation, restraint, and patience. This brought order to Taiwanese society and reduced crime. For Taiwanese people, the rule by the Chinese Nationalist Party must have seemed too contrasting.
When I was a student, I worked part-time at a karaoke pub in Shibuya, and Mr. Li, a Chinese man working in the kitchen, was often scolded by the manager for eating food from the kitchen. The rule for the food provided by the store was that you could eat as much white rice as you wanted, but Mr. Lee was eating a pile of white rice on a platter similar to curry rice.
He ended up secretly eating an apple in the bathroom, which got him fired. The reason for this was that apple cores clogged the toilet and caused a flood. At that time, China was still poor, and my Japanese part-time friend said that it was a pity to be fired because China was poor, but I thought that no matter how poor someone was, if they were full, they wouldn't eat any more.
The Chinese believe that there is no problem because pigs eat leftover food left over by humans, and humans then eat the pigs. In China, it is considered polite to leave much of a meal uneaten, which is why there is no sense of guilt. When China began economic growth, the problem of garbage became a problem. I remember that a large amount of leftover food became impossible to dispose of, and a female newscaster on a Chinese news program shouted, ``Even pigs can't eat any more garbage!'' I wonder if she is also making a mistake with this caster. Leftover food from restaurants in the city is not sent to pig farms.
What I'm trying to say is that in Chinese culture, you need more than you need to be satisfied. Satisfaction can only be achieved when you have all of them. This means that even in times of poverty, the idea of moderation and moderation did not develop as a culture. When I think about it, I get a chill down my spine as I wonder how much of what China currently wants to obtain.
What current China wants to gain from its expansion policy. It's not what you need, it's more than you need.
