On June 23, local time, the State Department of the United States announced that officials and defense departments of the United States and Japan held a dialogue on "extending deterrence" at the Naval Base in the Kings Bay of the United States from 21 to 22.

The so -called "extended deterrence" refers to the provision of military protection to the United States or partnerships, avoiding being attacked by third parties. During the visit to Japan in May this year, the US President Biden promised to protect Japan with all means including nuclear weapons. The United States and Japan reached an agreement on strengthening the discussion of "extended deterrence". It is worth noting that there is such a sentence in the US statement: as part of the "extended deterrent" dialogue, the delegations of the United States and Japan visited the US "Ohio" class strategic nuclear submarine "Maryland".

Dangerous trend: Japan's political circles are loosened to hold nuclear weapons attitudes in Japan. Various signs show that Japanese society, especially politics, has gradually loosen the trend on the issues of nuclear submarines and even nuclear weapons. "Asahi Shimbun" and the University of Tokyo recently investigated the candidates for party participating in the July Senate elections. When asked if he should adhere to the "three principles of nuclear no nuclear", the proportion of Liberal Democratic Party candidates who had been answered was 64%, which fell below 70%for the first time, setting the lowest since the investigation since 2007. At the same time, the proportion of "three principles of nuclear no nuclear" reached 9%, a new high. According to the analysis, since the outbreak of Japan's "strategic derailment" Russia and Ukraine conflict, Japan has tried to renders speculation and intends to "use Western Disaster East". In particular, the conservatives of politics have actively used crisis to promote Japan's strategic transformation.

Some analysts pointed out that the biggest threat facing Japan is not from the external security environment, but the "derailment" of its own strategy, that is, the track of peaceful development under the post -war constitution, and adopting a long -distance attack and neighboring military military internally. Diplomatic layout. Military expert Du Wenlong said that Japan has deepened its "bundling" with the United States in conventional combat capabilities. It will be very dangerous if you try to start the so -called "cooperation" in terms of nuclear capacity. After the Japanese side left the "three principles of nuclear non -nuclear", it was worthy of vigilance.
