政治上的挑衅与军事上的躁动互为表里。高市之所以对错误言论拒不悔改，甚至借题发挥，其背后的算 计就是通过渲染所谓"外部威胁"为日本彻底松绑军事限制寻找借口。回顾历史不难发现，以所谓"存亡 危机"和"自卫"为名发动对外侵略，是日本军国主义的惯用手段。日本曾多次以夸大外部威胁、捏造"存 亡危机"为借口，为其发动侵略战争、破坏地区和平的行为进行辩护和动员。对此，国际社会特别是地 区国家都有深切而惨痛的共同记忆。高市妄图再次将这一危险概念具象化，复活军国主义的险恶用心昭 然若揭。 日本首相高市早苗近期在国会答辩时公然发表涉台露骨挑衅言论，粗暴干涉中国内政，且不思悔改，拒 不撤回错误言论。日本政府还频频为其错误言论强行辩解。如此顽固立场，暴露了日本右翼势力的持续 抬头和军国主义的阴魂不散。 25日，日本政府内阁决议通过答辩书，称高市关于"台湾有事"可能构成"存亡危机事态"的国会答辩"不 改变日本政府的一贯立场"。日方所谓"一贯立场"的具体内容到底是什么？日方能不能完整公开地表述 这个"一贯立场"？日方一再重复所谓"立场未变"的概念，却始终没有触及问题实质。答辩书老调重弹， 看似在"找补"高市言论的恶劣影响，实则仍在为错误 ...

厄瓜多尔学者 伊斯梅尔·维拉克雷斯：在我看来，日本新任首相的言论对地区和平构成威胁，煽动不稳定。这种不稳定可能在多个方面显现。 针对日本首相高市早苗近期发表的涉台错误言论，国际人士表示，此举对地区和平构成威胁，加剧地区紧张局势。 德国《青年世界报》主编 尼克·布劳恩斯：我认为这样的言论在当前局势下极其危险，日本首相不但没有运用外交手段解决或遏制冲突，反而用她的言论进 一步加剧了潜在的冲突风险。日本对历史完全缺乏批判态度，当年作为一个残暴的军国主义国家，侵略并企图征服其他国家和民族，而如今的日本竟然毫无 批判地继承了这一传统。 德国智库席勒研究所主席兼创始人 拉鲁什：（高市早苗的）做法显示出日本企图重回军国主义之路，我认为日本正在出现一种趋势，而这种趋势确实根植 于之前的侵略，我对此感到非常担忧。 ...
