The second more

US Secretary of Defense William Perry expressed his anger and condemnation of the Japanese Government's refusal to purchase US armaments, and at the same time expressed the hope that the Japanese Prime Minister would understand the strategic cooperation and alliance between Japan and the United States, and hoped that he would not go down some wrong lines.

In other words, Japan must understand what it means to be a watchdog for the United States, and to be independent, and unless the United States declines one day, you will always be slaves of the United States.

Even the Japanese government has nothing to do about such shameless behavior of the United States. Who said that they still have US troops stationed in Japan on their soil, and Japan has not actually been able to get out of the shadow of the "US-Japan Security Treaty", and this shadow will accompany and continue for decades. Until the decline of the United States, or the strength of Japan to the point that the United States is no longer able to continue to control it.

However, this time, Ryutaro Hashimoto rarely showed a tough attitude, stating to the outside world that the procurement of armaments by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces is carried out in strict accordance with Japan's own laws, and other countries have no right to interfere. In other words, the Americans cannot interfere in Japan's internal affairs, and Japan can buy the armaments of any country it likes, and there is no need for the Americans to dictate them.

This came as a surprise to President Mario, who had first protested so strongly about arms sales, and he had to wonder if there had been any shady dealings between Japan and the Soviet Union. This is simply a pervasive prying corner of the Americans.

Just after Japan announced that the Self-Defense Forces would purchase its own products, the Soviet side also announced another piece of heavy news, saying that the dispute between the Soviet Union and Japan over the South Kuril Islands could be shelved and the economic development could be jointly promoted. This is not a cliché in the past, and when the Soviet Union announced this news just after the United States condemned Japan, it had another intriguing meaning. On the surface, it is a normal cooperation and exchange between the two countries, but in terms of timing, it also reveals a sense of opposition to the gross interference of the United States.

At the same time, the Soviet side also expressed the hope that Japan's military could be normalized and that the normalization of a country's military could be truly restored. In fact, it is a hint that the Japanese military will abolish the civilian co-ordination system and further tie the dog leash around Japan's neck.

Mario wondered if this meant that there was some kind of agreement between Japan and the Soviet Union, and that the Soviet Union was the demon Lucifer who lured Japan to its depravity.

Thinking of this, President Mario suddenly had an ominous premonition that if Japan wanted to quietly approach the Iron Curtain forces, as was the case with the relations between China and the Soviet Union, then American interests in the Asia-Pacific region would be seriously threatened. This threat comes not only from China, but also from what the United States considers its most comfortable ally.

The U.S.-Japan alliance has begun to crack because of its interests.

The United States, which is becoming more and more suspicious, will not allow the Soviet Union's conspiracy to succeed; when such signs appear at the top level of Japan, it is bound to vigorously suppress the momentum, and the most direct thing is to use the economy to open the knife.

First of all, the United States uses the anti-dumping bill to attack Japan's exports and restrict the other side's industrial exports; as a country dominated by processing and exporting industries, Japan's originally weak economy will feel constrained after a long time, and then Ryutaro Hashimoto will choose to take the initiative to dismiss and replace it with another prime minister who can control it because he cannot solve the economic difficulties that have worsened the situation.

The next question is about Japan's armaments, and most of the weapons currently in service in Japan are from the United States, such as the Navy's Kongo-class destroyers, the Air Force's F15 fighters, and Patriot anti-aircraft missiles. Once the import of parts and weapons is restricted, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces will face a passive situation of not replacing parts. Japan, which had barely maintained its military strength in a state of self-preservation, was absolutely unable to keep a country's military functioning normally after cutting off the supply of weapons and parts. In this way, Japan will have to turn around and kneel down and beg the United States to raise its noble hand.

It is because of these two considerations that the United States dares to boldly impose sanctions on Japan. But how could the Soviet Union, which also took these two points into account, miss the opportunity to intervene.

Just after the United States announced these two things, the Soviet Union immediately announced that the United States would relax restrictions on arms sales to Japan, and if Japan wanted to, the Soviet Union could even sell Su-27 fighters and T72 main battle tanks. and deepening economic and trade cooperation between the two sides. Obviously, both of these points are aimed at the United States, and basically the United States wants to restrain Japan, and the Soviet Union does the opposite.

However, the Soviet Union's hand underscored Japan's importance, and the more this happened, Japan showed an ambiguous and ambiguous attitude, oscillating back and forth between the Soviet Union and the United States. However, such an outcome was already very satisfying to Yanayev, after all, the rupture of the alliance between Japan and the United States would mean half of the Soviet Union's strategic victory.

"Now that there is a crack in the U.S.-Japan alliance, the next thing to do is to further widen the rift, and the more Japan wants to break free from the control of the United States, the more tightly the United States will control, which will only add to Japan's anti-American sentiment. Isn't it true that the people are very dissatisfied with the US military base in Japan? In this case, the first thing that infiltrated the Soviet forces did was to stir up the emotions of the local people, which could create tensions between the United States and Japan. ”

Yanayev happened to pay attention to the follow-up of the sex scandal, and in the end, the US military ended with an apology, and the relevant personnel did not receive legal sanctions. It is no wonder that in the 90s, the Japanese became more and more disgusted with the domineering American soldiers on their own soil.

"The Americans, who rely on their superiority, will definitely continue to suppress public opinion in Japanese society, so Shigeshin May can be reused, and he is also a potential chess piece, especially now that the Japanese Red Army is in a state of weakness."

After the collapse of the Japanese Red Army, Shigenobu May, the leader of the Red Army, was regarded by the Soviet Union as an object that could be supported. In particular, her opposition to the U.S. government, coupled with her status as the daughter of the house, will definitely be able to exert unexpected influence, and as long as she runs it well, she will be able to cultivate a new anti-American political force in Japan that is different from the Japanese Communist Party, and it can truly be used by the Soviet Union.

In this way, in the game between the United States and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union played its first card in Japan. (To be continued.) )
