Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida pledged Friday alongside US President Joe Biden to modernize his country’s military, warning that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine had opened a dangerous new era and could embolden China.
WASHINGTON, United States –
“Let me be crystal clear: the United States is fully, thoroughly, completely committed to the alliance and more importantly to Japan’s defense,” Biden said. “Russia’s aggression against Ukraine has marked the complete end of the post-Cold War world,” Kishida said at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies.
Kishida called it a “major shift” in Japan’s policy toward Russia following marathon but unsuccessful talks to resolve a dispute over islands seized by Soviet troops shortly after Tokyo’s surrender in 1945. As part of its new defense policy, Japan is going on a shopping spree and is looking to buy hundreds of Tomahawk cruise missiles, which currently are only in the arsenals of the United States and Britain.
