Japan's move to establish independent mission in NATO a dangerous act of adding new instability to regional situation

Kim Ryo Won, an international security analyst of the DPRK, issued the following article "Japan's move to establish an independent mission in NATO is a dangerous act of adding new instability to the regional situation":
Shortly ago, Japan officially opened its independent full-time mission in NATO under the pretext of "strengthening security cooperation with NATO and promoting strategic solidarity between the Indo-Pacific region and the European and Atlantic regions".
It set up its independent mission in NATO at a time when the security environment in the Asia-Pacific region is more seriously threatened due to the US provocative military hegemony-seeking acts. This is a dangerous act of adding a new factor for instability to the regional situation.
It is extremely escalating the military tension in the region while tightening military confab and tie-up with NATO outside the region, pursuant to the US strategy for world domination to expand NATO's sphere of influence into the Asia-Pacific region.
This is proved by the fact that Japan has regularly participated in the conspiracy sponsored by NATO from 2022, including the NATO summit, and last year, in particular, it conducted bilateral and multilateral military drills in succession on some pretexts in the Japanese Archipelago and its surrounding waters and the Pacific with NATO member nations including the US.
Japan is getting frantic with the bulk purchase of long-range strike means including US-made air-to-air missiles and Tomahawk cruise missiles by legalizing the possession of capability for making a preemptive attack and redoubling military spending. It is also getting hell-bent on securing the war camp by drawing NATO into the Asia-Pacific region. This is a dangerous development of the situation.
All facts clearly prove once again that Japan, a war criminal state, is an anti-peace force threatening the Asia-Pacific region and the rest of the world through its admission to aggressive military blocs, undisguised arms buildup and ceaseless war drills.
The tightened nexus between Japan, the source of calamity in the region which is sharpening a sword for revenge, while totally denying the past history of aggression crimes till now, 80 years after its defeat, and NATO, which is triggering off war and armed conflicts in different parts of the world under a reckless expansionist policy, is a serious threat to international peace and security.
Japan should bear in mind that as long as it brings the war cloud of reinvasion to the Asia-Pacific region in collusion with NATO, it will face strong counteraction and strategic isolation from neighbouring countries.
