视频丨日本学者：高市早苗错误言论触及宪法和国际法红线

Core Viewpoint - The statements made by Japanese politician Sanae Takaichi regarding Taiwan represent a significant deviation from Japan's constitutional principles and could potentially alter Japan's long-standing pacifist stance [2][4][5]. Group 1: Constitutional Implications - Takaichi's use of the term "crisis of survival" in relation to Taiwan suggests a shift towards the exercise of collective self-defense, implying Japan's potential involvement in military conflict [2]. - This stance is seen as a violation of Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution, which renounces war and prohibits military intervention in foreign conflicts [4]. - Scholars argue that advocating for military intervention in Taiwan contradicts Japan's established position that the Taiwan issue is a domestic matter for China [2][4]. Group 2: Military Trends - There is a noted increase in militarization in Japan, particularly since late 2022, with the presence of not only the Japanese Self-Defense Forces but also U.S. military forces and troops from allied nations such as Australia, France, and Germany in the region [5]. - The local population in Okinawa and surrounding areas has expressed heightened concerns regarding the military buildup and foreign military exercises occurring in the vicinity [5].
