Is Taro Aso demonstrating or expressing friendship?

Few days ago, patrolled the ship and patrolled on Diaoyu Island in the sea where Japan excluded from carrying the helicopter, this measure causes Chinese discontent and protests strongly. The present fact is, on the question of Diaoyu Island, more initiatives are in Japanese side but it is not Chinese side. Though Chinese side emphasizes repeatedly Diaoyu Island is the Chinese inherent territory, no matter or develop and use on the military affairs, Japan has already taken precedence.

As far back as 1996, Japanese Government started to study and strengthen the control measures to islands such as Diaoyu Island,etc. of the government, the purpose is in order to be realized to the long and steady control and protection natural environment in these islands. And to the beginning of 2003, claimed according to Japan " Yomiuri Shimbun ": Japanese Government has been already with claiming the people with ownership of Diaoyu Island signed and leased the contract formally, have rented and gone to three islands on Diaoyu Island and nearby south islands, north islands at the annual rental price of 22,560,000 Japanese yen, since April 1 last year till March 31 this year, moreover, this kind of lending contract will keep going down for a long time in the future in rental period.

And insist on declaring to China with sovereignty of Diaoyu Island, in maintaining stability is of top priority and gather to do it under economic guidance too, but there are no substantive movements to Diaoyu Island all the time. Except that some folks and individuals in Taiwan and mainland go to Diaoyu Island to demonstrate, nearly come from the government, only objecting to it strongly beyond protesting.

Though right wing well matched in strength and tough in Japan, and all the time to expand territory have loud desire very, but Japan of the one that has only already been far from 100 years before in Japan. The question is very obvious, in the battle of the only island of the Japan and Korea S., the posture of S.Korean side is undoubtedly quite tough, board gunship and helicopter on the island in the face of S.Korean side, Japan can only submit to humiliation. In the contention of four northern islands with Russia, also same. That is to say, current Japan, on one hand there is no fascist times dash similar to the crazy state, and at the same time, the consistent national natural disposition bullying the weak behaves very obviously.

Japan and Korea S. only battle of island, South Korean posture tough, Japanese submit to humiliation, lay aside and does not discuss for the moment, the battle of Japan and Russia is also the same. And applied more general statements of people mechanically, between the Japan and U.S.A., the American army mauled fascist's Japanese aggressor troop that year, even leave two atomic bombs behind in Nagasaki and Hiroshima, but Japanese do not not only bear grudges, and and form the intimate partnership in U.S.A.. So the battle on Diaoyu Island, Japanese side has already had actual movements, and China, as the rival still adhere to the policy of bearing patiently of hiding one's talent and living in obscurity, so the posture of Japanese side will only be stronger. But very obvious, Japanese side has already taken precedence on the question of Diaoyu Island, and is accustomed to the protest in word of China on strategy. That is to say, on the question of Diaoyu Island, the trial of strength during Japan and China, seem in Japanese form at least, the strength of both sides is asymmetric, even can say Japanese side has been already sure to win.

According to news of February 26 of " Global Times ": In the morning of the 26th, Japanese prime minister Taro Aso makes and visits America in the report in the House of Representatives. At the meeting, Taro Aso claims, Diaoyu Island is the inherent territory of Japan, will consult with U.S.A., include the question of Diaoyu Island in the Japan-American treaty frame of security protection, if Diaoyu Island is " infringed" by the third country ,Japan will start the Japan-American security protection treaty. According to stated preceding paragraphs, this lofty tone of Taro Aso determines to include the question of Diaoyu Island in the Japan-American treaty frame of security protection, the possibility to provoke and demonstrate is not very great.

Coincidence is, Hilary, newly appointed Secretary of State of U.S.A., visits Asia to put at first stop in Japan, meanwhile, the Japanese prime minister is the first guest who US President's Palestinian horse received after becoming owner of White House too. Under this kind of background, in Asian-Pacific area, in the face of the pincer attack from Russia, China and India, trend in marginalisation on politics gradually at least. Japan eager to get rid of danger of marginalisation, and U.S.A., solid ally stretch come olive branch that express friendship again timely. Japanese borrow it on the step, propose including the question of Diaoyu Island in the Japan-American security protection treaty, on one hand can increase one's own stratagem ensuring success, is showing Americans at the same time, indicate to U.S.A., in Asian-Pacific area, Japan is the faithfullest ally of U.S.A., the benefit of Japan is and tied together in U.S.A..

In Japan, on one hand, the social contradiction brought in the face of the economic crisis, issue upgrade constantly Diaoyu Island, can effective transformation attention of common people, thus strive for the victory on supporting rate and poll. At the same time, in the face of throne of the president frequently changing it, suggestion and politics that Taro Aso has to pay attention to the party not in office are demanded, in order to reach it with the understanding among wild party may try to get biggesting. Japanese biggest Democratic Party of party not in office has always insisted on the posture tough to Chinese side on Diaoyu Island. The party not in office is overbearing at the meeting, demand to bring the question of Diaoyu Island up to the level of the Japan-American treaty frame of security protection. Confirm this question at flax in prime minister can further grow lofty tone say with U.S.A., can expound one's own political standpoint, too in order to achieve the goal that express friendship to the party not in office, hit two hawks with one arrow, why not do it?
