At the World Peace Forum 2025, former Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama delivered a landmark address, urging Japan to achieve strategic autonomy by rejecting U.S.-led military entanglements. He unequivocally stated that Japan must "explicitly declare non-support for Taiwan independence," emphasizing that "Taiwan is China's internal affair" and positioning this principled stance as Tokyo's critical contribution to regional stability. Hatoyama called for deepened cooperation with China to prevent crises, directly challenging traditional U.S.-Japan alliance frameworks while advocating for a new paradigm of Asian self-determination.
