日本学者：高市错误言论无视法律 应撤回

Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that the Japanese government's stance on the Taiwan issue is clearly defined in documents such as the 1972 Japan-China Joint Communiqué, and recent statements by politicians like Takashi Hayashi are seen as erroneous and deviating from Japan's long-standing commitments [1] - Shimizu Masahiko warns that the Japanese government is "hollowing out" existing institutional constraints to pave the way for constitutional amendments and military normalization, which is considered a dangerous trend [1][3] - The government has been weakening restrictions on the Self-Defense Forces, such as prohibiting overseas deployment and maintaining a defense budget not exceeding 1% of GDP, which has led to significant implications for Japan's military posture [3] Group 2 - The Japanese government has significantly increased military spending, which has resulted in a noticeable squeeze on the welfare sector [3] - If defense spending were to rise to 3.5% of GDP as per U.S. demands, it could balloon to approximately 20 trillion yen, raising concerns about the allocation of funds that could otherwise be invested in education and social welfare [5] - Discussions around nuclear armament and attempts to undermine the "Three Non-Nuclear Principles" are seen as a violation of Japan's historical stance against nuclear weapons, which is rooted in the experiences of Hiroshima and Nagasaki [5][6]
