  1. …yeah, but wtf is she going to do about it?

    I support Japan in this but I don’t think Takaichi has a good understanding of her own cards. It’s one thing to be all „rah rah Japan will be strong against China“ but if you get take that confidence into the real world without accepting reality you can wind up making a lot of unforced errors.

    And it’s ok for US, Japan and the rest of the west to restrict and contain China? Unbelieveable.

    why would they negotiate with someone who threatens chinese national security? makes zero sense

  4. How could Takaichi be so foolish?

    Yeah, all of this is ‚it is unacceptable‘ to you… But did you know that for many Asian countries, the revisionist modern history of Japan that you are trying to reinforce is fundamentally unacceptable? Similarly, for those Chinese people, your attempt to intervene in their internal affairs and your attempt to confront them militarily is also ‚fundamentally unacceptable‘?

    Enjoy this game, you’ve started it, but it won’t end the way you want it to.

  5. This goes back to the idea that

    1. Japan is middle power and cannot influence a great power country

    2. Is not fully in control of its destiny (does not mine its own rare earths) and needs to play nice instead of talking tough

    You guys are cooked, why start a fight if you have no punches and rely on your bigger friend who’s on vacation.

    Japanese people believe that Japan is a superpower. The later realization is delayed, the grimmer consequence it will bring.

    What is she protesting with? You need to be able to have some sort of leverage to negotiate and make demands.

    Maybe she needed to think about her position and her country’s position before making statements…

  9. PM Takaichi’s next move is to align with Western nations that are liable to be pressured by the CCP. There isn’t a single Western country that thinks they are immune to this kind of political coercion.

  10. I thought they wanted to boycott China?

    Why is she protesting something she wanted to do anyway?

    She’s the one that wanted to decouple 🤷‍♂️ China just helped speed it up and now she’s crying “wait not like that”
