中方：以所谓“存亡危机”发动对外侵略是日本军国主义惯用伎俩

Core Viewpoint - The Chinese government criticizes Japan's potential military intervention in the Taiwan Strait, linking it to historical patterns of Japanese militarism and aggression under the guise of "self-defense" and "survival crisis" [1][2]. Group 1: Historical Context - Japan has historically used the concept of "survival crisis" to justify military aggression, such as the invasion of Northeast China in 1931 and the broader conflicts during World War II [2]. - The notion of "self-defense" has been manipulated by Japan to initiate conflicts, as seen in the lead-up to the Pacific War [2]. Group 2: Legal Framework - The Chinese government emphasizes that Japan's post-World War II constitution prohibits the use of military force for resolving international disputes and mandates a principle of self-defense [1]. - The United Nations Charter's provision for "collective self-defense" was established to maintain international security and prevent the resurgence of fascism, which Japan is seen as violating by considering military actions in the Taiwan Strait [1].
