Japan's Defense White Paper Is Reinvasion-minded One for Legalization of Operation of War Machine: International Security Analyst

Pyongyang, August 11 (KCNA) -- Kang Won Chol, an international security analyst of the DPRK, issued the following article "Japan's defense white paper is a reinvasion-minded one for the legalization of the operation of war machine":

Japan has been rushing headlong into militarization, seized with an ambition for reinvasion. Against this backdrop, it issued the 2026 Defense White Paper.

In the white paper, being rejected as the one for aggression at home and abroad, Japan groundlessly described the DPRK and other neighboring countries as a "serious and imminent threat" and the "greatest strategic challenge" in order to justify its reckless arms buildup.

It is nothing but an act of turning black into white that Japan stipulated the "threat" from neighboring countries in the white paper although it has been putting spurs to the tightening of the alliance with the U.S. and its followers after setting it as a "state policy" to negate its past crimes and realize its ambition to become a military power.

As everybody knows, Japan, a war criminal state responsible for inflicting a great disaster upon the humankind in the first half of the 20th century, refuses to discard the militarist ambition for reinvasion in the face of all the political and legal restrictions, and have been heading for its conversion into a military power out of vengeance for its defeat for over 80 years. This poses an imminent and serious threat to the world at present.

Following the publication of the white paper, Defence Minister Koizumi stressed the need to beef up and renovate the military muscle with a sense of urgency and crisis in response to the escalating threats from the neighboring countries. This clearly shows how desperately he is pushing Japan into following an extremely dangerous road in the vanguard for militarization.

The reality proves that Japan's political climate and true colors characterized by an aggression gene remain unchanged and mutate into more dangerous forms with each passing day.

No matter how hard Japan tries to describe its real intention for aggression as "defense", it will never conceal its true colors as a root cause of endangering the peace and escalating the tensions in the region.

To build up in every way an overwhelming and powerful war deterrent for self-defence capable of containing and frustrating the enemy states' ambition for reinvasion and their attempt to unleash an aggressive war serves as an indispensable contribution to reliably defending the sovereignty of the country and maintaining the regional peace and stability.

Japan's frantic moves to turn itself into a war state and invasion-minded state will only further endanger Japan's future.

The international community should sharpen vigilance against Japan's neo-militarist move to seriously destroy the regional peace and security and turn itself into a more dangerous entity each day, and strongly condemn and reject it. -0-
