Seeking military "deregulation", Japan's move is very covert

2022-11-09

According to the Financial Times, Japan and the United Kingdom will sign a major defense treaty in December to establish a deeper security relationship. In addition, the Japanese Defense Ministry recently announced that it has officially joined the NATO Network Defense Center, which is the latest move for NATO to extend its tentacles to the Asia Pacific region after South Korea joined the organization in May this year and Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand participated in the NATO summit in June. In recent years, the interaction between Japan and Britain in military security is very hot, and Japan and NATO are also very close. These actions are not surprising. The political intention of the Liberal Democratic Party regime to speed up the military "loosening" is clear. Take Japan's accession to the NATO Network Defense Center as an example. The full name of NATO Network Defense Center is "NATO Cooperative Network Defense Center of Excellence", claiming to be the "most authoritative" network security agency in the world. This round of crisis in Ukraine reflects that a major feature of modern warfare is cognitive domain warfare, which is dominated by network warfare and information warfare. The importance of maintaining network security, strengthening network defense and network attack capabilities has never been higher. In this context, the network defense center, as a subordinate organization of NATO, has become a new "Internet celebrity". This year, the organization has attracted two "heavyweight" Asian countries from South Korea and Japan to join, which has become an important breakthrough in NATO's "globalization" test. In the view of NATO led by the United States, Japan and South Korea, as developed countries with high Internet penetration, have outstanding network technology capabilities. After the two countries join, it will help to improve the organization's technical capabilities in the field of network operations, and also deepen technical cooperation and information sharing among members. At the same time, bringing Japan and South Korea into the multilateral network security cooperation framework led by the United States can not only further strengthen the dominance of international cyberspace controlled by the United States and the West, but also create a fulcrum for network confrontation in Northeast Asia, so as to better implement the strategic needs of containment and containment of China. Strictly speaking, Japan's accession to the NATO Network Defense Center is not the same as Japan's accession to NATO. However, through this move, Japan's information released to the outside world is by no means positive, but comes down in one continuous line with its policy trend of seeking military "deregulation" so far. At the end of this year, the Andian government will issue three national defense policy documents, namely, the new version of the National Security Guarantee Strategy, the Outline of the Defense Plan, and the Medium term Defense Force Readiness Plan. After the LDP regime continued to hype "external threats", incite public awareness of crisis and other public opinion operations, it is widely believed that the Andian government will further exaggerate the "severe external security environment" in relevant documents, explicitly write into the content of significantly improving defense spending and developing offensive warfare capabilities, so as to further elevate the peaceful constitution and the "exclusive defense" policy, so that Japan will continue to move towards the goal of a military power. In the new version of the Defense White Paper released in July this year, the Japanese government took improving the operational capabilities in the network and space fields as the key direction of defense policy adjustment. It plans to comprehensively increase human and financial input, and strive to seize the dominant position in the "frontier" field of international security. In March this year, the Japanese Self Defense Force established a 540 member "cyber defense team" to undertake cyber defense and combat tasks, and plans to expand the relevant team to 5000 members. Since this year, the Self Defense Forces have participated in multilateral cyber war exercises for many times, and participated in the "Lock Shield" held by NATO Network Defense Center in April
