The militarist entity of Japan, which has completely cast off its veil of "exclusive defence", is openly manifesting itself.

Recently, the Liberal Democratic Party and the Restoration Party of Japan reportedly submitted to the prime minister a proposal on lifting in a principled way the ban on the export of all its weapons and equipment including lethal weapons.

The details of the proposal call for removing the five principles of the past that have limited Japan's equipment export to "disaster relief, transportation, patrol, surveillance and clearing".

When the proposal is formally passed through the prime minister, an issue of revising the system of arms export will be discussed even in the spring this year.

If then, Japan will be allowed to export fighters, escort ships, submarines and other lethal weapons and equipment to the countries with which it has signed an agreement on the export of "defence equipment" and the transfer of technology.

Japan has so far concluded such agreement with 17 countries, and several Asia-Pacific countries are among them.

What should not be overlooked is that Japan is trying to let off the brake that it has applied as the principle–that it shall not transfer even non-lethal equipment to the countries in dispute.

This will legally allow Japan to export and support lethal weapons to a "fellow country" where armed conflict has broken out.

Militarist Japan's ambition has gone so far.

Dangerous and sinister intention is behind Japan's attempt to openly export offensive lethal weapons–with no restrictions at that–to the countries with which it has signed the agreement on the export of the "defence equipment" and the transfer of technology.

Japan is drastically increasing its military expenditure year on year and getting hell-bent on the development and introduction of various kinds of offensive weapons.

Based on this, the Japanese munitions industry, which has been limited to the delivery of military equipment to the "Self-Defence Forces", is therefore expanding day by day to seek a new market and, thereby, is trying to advance to the hot spots of the world to meet its demand.

At the same time, Japan is trying to verify and confirm in a versatile way the advantages and disadvantages of its military hardware including the ability to operate them in real war and their lethal effect in different parts of the world and rapidly increase the preemptive attack capability of the insular nation by rapidly updating the weapon systems.

Japan's moves to export massive offensive lethal weapons pose a grave challenge to global peace and security.

This will certainly cause a serious arms race among the neighbouring countries, escalate the geopolitical crisis and, furthermore, worsen the world situation.

It is the intention of Japan to turn its economy into the one based on a huge munitions industry as soon as possible and accelerate the militarization by relying on it and, at the same time, create a favourable environment for reinvasion by creating an imbalance of power in the region and the rest of the world.

Japan should clearly understand that the road of reinvasion, which the war criminal state is trying to pave by opening a new market for arms export, will lead it to the irrevocable ruin.
