Japan PM's Reckless Gamble

One month in, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's leadership is already sowing discord at home and abroad. Her latest gambit? Framing Taiwan as a pretext for Japan's potential military mobilization, ignoring both history and its pacifist constitution in the process. As CGTN's Tian Wei points out, it's a deliberate serious provocation, harking back to a dark colonial past Japan once imposed on Taiwan Island. This is the Takaichi playbook: stir controversy, escalate tensions, and distort history for political gain. But the region sees through it. Peace in Asia was earned through reconciliation. So, this begs the question: Is a political gamble really worth undoing decades of fragile diplomacy and peace?
