Clash! United States Presidential Election
On the 12th, Prime Minister Yoshii Suga had a telephone conversation with former Vice President Joe Byden of the Democratic Party, who was reportedly elected in the US presidential election. Byden said that Okinawa Prefecture and the Senkaku Islands, which are under pressure due to the expansion of China’s military supremacy, are within the scope of Article 5 of the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty, which stipulates defense obligations of Japan. However, the announcement posted on the Home Page of the Management Transition Team (HP) does not have the word “Senkaku Islands”. Mr. Byden, who is said to be a “pro-high school”, did you respond to Japan with “verbal diplomacy” and consider China as well?
“There was a statement that we committed to applying Article 5 of the Japan-US Security Treaty to the Senkaku Islands.”
After the meeting, Prime Minister Kan explained to the press. He called Mr. Byden the “next president.”
Around the Senkaku, in October, the armed ship of the China Maritime Police Department recorded the longest continuous stay in the territory of 57 hours and 39 minutes, and the number of navigation in the connected water area was the highest of the year. . Mr. Byden’s comments are important to prevent further leaks, but I can’t be sure.
The content of the telephone conversations with Prime Minister Kan was immediately posted on the website of the administration transition team established by the Byden camp. Although there were descriptions such as “strengthening the Japan-US alliance” and “Article 5 of the Japan-US Security Treaty”, there was no word “Senkaku Islands”.
Even more surprising is the diplomatic and security policy “Free and Open Indo-Pacific =”, which has been confirmed among leaders of the liberal camp, such as former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and US President Donald Trump. “FOIP)” was described as “Indo-Pacific region” in the HP.
