【环球时报驻日本特约记者 王军 环球时报记者 邢晓婧 杨晨】"如何解决台湾问题是中国人自己的事，不容任何外来干涉。"13日，外交部副部长孙卫东奉示 召见日本驻华大使金杉宪治，就日本首相高市早苗涉华错误言行提出严正交涉。孙卫东表示，日本首相高市早苗日前在国会答辩时公然发表涉台露骨挑衅言 论，暗示可能武力介入台海问题，性质影响极其恶劣。在中方多次严正交涉后，日方仍不思悔改，拒不撤回错误言论。中方对此强烈不满、坚决反对，向日 方提出严正交涉和强烈抗议。14日，国防部发言人和国务院台办发言人分别发表评论称，日本领导人涉台错误言论"挑战战后国际秩序，向'台独'势力发出 严重错误信号，性质影响十分恶劣，极不负责、极其危险"，"希望广大台湾同胞充分认清相关行径的危险性、危害性，同我们一道守护中华民族共同家园， 维护中华民族根本利益和自身安全福祉"。 "14 亿中国人民对此绝不答应！ " 13日，外交部副部长孙卫东奉示召见日本驻华大使金杉宪治时指出，高市的涉台言论极其错误、极为危险，粗暴干涉中国内政，严重违背国际法和国际关系 基本准则，严重破坏战后国际秩序，严重违背一个中国原则和中日四个政治文件精神，严重破坏中日关系政治基础 ...

【文/观察者网专栏作者 江宇舟】 俗话说"新官上任三把火"，而日本新任首相高市早苗是不断玩火。 在APEC与中方会谈结束的档口，就马不停蹄与夹带赖清德"三倡议"私货的台湾代表会面。遭到中方强 烈抗议后，又丝毫不知收敛，在日本国会大放厥词，称如果中国大陆对台湾出动军舰并使用武力，可能 会构成"存亡危机事态"，自卫队据此可以行使集体自卫权。此言遭到批评后，她表态拒不撤回。同时， 还公然给谢长廷颁发旭日大绶章。 面对中国驻日外交人员的维权，日本也嚣张至极，倒打一耙，仿佛忘了这一切的起因，正是在台湾问题 上劣迹斑斑、罄竹难书的日本；而作为二战战败国的日本，如今却对中国统一大业发出战争威胁。 日本在历史问题上的"健忘"与歪曲，公然挑衅涉及中国核心利益的现实问题，高市内阁在这条路上越走 越远，恶劣程度出现质的突破，需要被迎头痛击。 本轮挑衅已构成连环违法，直接动摇中日关系基础 这一轮质变正在加速形成，高市早苗为了这一通表态，不惜构成多轮违法。而看似"暴走"的行为，绝非 一日之寒。在长年错误的积累之下，日本国内难以自行纠正，其战后政治体制已经陷入深刻矛盾，必须 向外转嫁。在日方如此剧烈的内生动力之下，中日关系也难以依靠我们 ...

石破对高市的言论提出质疑。 他表示，断定"在某种情况下就会这样做"，并不能提高威慑力。 高市7日在国会答辩时就"台湾有事"表示，如果伴随出动军舰和使用武力，可能会构成"存亡危机事态"。根据日本法律，如发生被认定为威胁日本 的"存亡危机事态"，即便并未直接遭受攻击，日本也将可以行使集体自卫权。10日，高市在国会答辩时坚称，其言论遵循日本政府的一贯见解，无意 撤回。 据央视新闻，日本前任首相石破茂13日在一档广播节目中对现任首相高市早苗日前在国会发表的涉台言论表示反对。 石破表示，高市的言论几乎等同于"台湾有事就是日本有事"。日本历届政府在台湾问题上都避免发表类似"在某种情况下就会这样做"的明确言论。 中国外交部发言人林剑13日表示，高市日前在国会公然发表涉台露骨挑衅言论，暗示武力介入台海的可能性。在中方表达严正交涉和强烈抗议后， 还执迷不悟、拒不撤回。上述错误言行严重违背一个中国原则，严重违背中日四个政治文件精神和国际关系基本准则，粗暴干涉中国内政，挑战中 方核心利益，侵犯中国主权，中方对此坚决反对、绝不容忍，日方必须立即纠正，收回恶劣言论，否则一切后果必须由日方承担。 ...

据日本TBS电视台10日报道，立宪民主党众议院议员大串博志在国会称，"认定'存亡危机事态'绝非易 事。一旦认定，就意味着防卫出动，也就是日本作为国家将卷入战争。你难道不打算撤回、取消相关发 言吗？" 对这番言论，日本政坛出现质疑声音。立宪民主党党首野田佳彦8日已对媒体表示，他对高市早苗的发 言感到"非常惊讶，感受到了（她）独自贸然前行的危险性"，并表示打算在国会就此展开追问。野田佳 彦还称，"历任首相都对这类话题保持着一定克制，（首相的此番发言）会对国内外产生影响。"他强 调，该发言"分量极重"，"难道不应该格外谨慎吗？" 日本前首相鸠山由纪夫8日在社交平台X上发帖表示，过去也有人提出"台湾有事即日本有事"，而高市 首相则称，（台湾有事）可能构成可行使集体自卫权的"存亡危机事态"，目的恐怕是煽动危机，进而为 增强军事力量找借口，但日本本应尊重台湾是中国的一部分这一事实。"归根结底，台湾问题是中国的 内政，日本绝不应插手。"他写道。 【环球时报报道 记者 邢晓婧】日本首相高市早苗日前在回应国会质询时，宣称"台湾有事"恐构成可行 使集体自卫权的"存亡危机事态"，引发争议。10日，日本在野党方面要求其撤回相关答辩内 ...

美国总统特朗普3月6日对《日美安全保障条约》表示不满，认为该条约是单方面的、存在不平等。特朗 普在白宫对记者称："美国必须保护日本，但无论发生什么事情，日本都不需要保护美国"。 特朗普表示："我非常喜欢日本，与日本有着很好的关系"，他进一步说道："但是，（美国）与日本有 一个有趣的交易"，提到了《日美安全保障条约》。他讽刺地说："我曾经问过'是谁做了这样的交易'。" 特朗普日前对《日美安全保障条约》显示出不满，认为该条约是单方面的、存在不平等。该条约约定 了美国对日本的防卫义务，但也规定了日本向美军提供基地的义务。考虑到会被批评为"是单方面的"， 日本还完善了在一定条件下动用集体自卫权等法律体系…… 特朗普强调称："他们（日本）在经济上从我们这里获益"。重申了自己长期以来的观点，即日本依赖美 国的军事力量，却在经济上获益。 日本探究特朗普不满日美安保条约的真意 石破茂在参议院预算委员会上做答辩（3月7日） 日本政府将探究美国总统特朗普关于《日美安全保障条约》"不满"言论的真实意图。日本首相石破茂在 3月7日的参议院预算委员会上表示："日本有向美国提供基地的义务，并非是美国保护日本的单方面关 系"。日本方面警惕 ...
