Japan's 'reinvasion' ship doomed to sinking: international security analyst

Date: 15/10/2024 | Source: Pyongyang Times | Read original version at source

Kim Ryo Won, an international security analyst of the DPRK, issued the following article titled "Japan's 'reinvasion' ship is doomed to sinking":

Being preoccupied by the ambition for reinvasion with the confrontation current of a "new Cold War" brought by the US, Japan gets hell-bent on the reckless moves for turning itself into a military giant, escalating the military tension in the region.

The latest attack submarine Chogei (giant whale) to be officially commissioned as a main warship of the Japanese Maritime "Self-Defense Force" revealed its shape on the sea on October 4.

This submarine is the fifth of those eight attack submarines of Taigei (big whale) type planned to be built till 2030. Reportedly this ship has been improved further than existing ones in terms of displacement, underwater cruise capability and search function and it was also designed to launch heavy torpedoes and anti-warship missiles.

Japan, which is draining the marine resources by hunting for food at random such whales under international protection, now launches into the sea menacing entities transformed into "monster whales". This is another dangerous act of harming the regional security environment.

Japan has built attack submarines one after another since it established a system of 22 submarines in 2022. Such moves were prompted by its intention to increase the promptness and effectiveness of preemptive attack by loading on those submarines long-range missiles and guided missiles to be newly developed and, at the same time, to enhance the naval operation capability and thus seize the naval supremacy.

This goes to prove that Japan is still seeking its ambition for the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere".

Japan is hell-bent on the possession of aircraft carriers, new-type Aegis warships and latest submarines, the development of various kinds of missiles and new-generation fighters and the deployment of such ultra-modern offensive weapons. The military expansion of Japan extending into all spheres such as outer space, sea and cyber, arouses serious concern not only in the international community but also in Japanese society.

The Japanese reactionaries give their newly-built warships such names of notorious warships as Taigei involved in the aggressive war in the last century. The fact vividly shows the present nature of the Japanese Maritime "SDF" closely resembling the old Japanese navy and their yearning for the past and revanchism.

The final aim of Japan's stereotyped clamour about "threat from its neighbouring countries" is also to cover up with a veil of lawfulness and rightness its extremely adventurous and provocative moves for arms buildup, which have systematically disrupted the regional geopolitical security balance, zealously pursuant to the US policy.

Far from liquidating the unprecedented blood-stained crimes committed against the peoples of Asian countries in the last century, Japan, a war criminal state, is running headlong along a reinvasion track, throwing away the veil of "pacifist country" and "exclusive defense", with the wild ambition to become the "leader" of the region again. Its arms buildup comes to the surface as the biggest threat seriously disturbing the regional peace and stability.

Japan is gradually widening the radius of its military operations in the Asia-Pacific region while talking about "the harshest and most complicated security environment after the war". Such action will only invite serious distrust and antagonism of regional countries and, inevitably, be led to the geopolitical and strategic isolation of the island country.

Japan's "reinvasion ship" which is making the ocean dirty by toeing the line of  the US, which is trying to use its junior allies as the puppets dashing even at the jaws of death and as bullet shields for maintaining its hegemony, is doomed to sinking.

The end of the imperial Japanese army teaches it.
