Russia and China are allegedly preparing military exercise to threaten Taiwan, but also Pearl Harbor.
This claim came from none other than Japan. Tokyo’s deputy Yasuhide Nakayama told the Hudson Institute that the US should be worried about Pearl Harbor.
“We have to show the deterrence towards China, and not just China but also the Russians, because, as I told you, that they are doing their exercises together,” Nakayama said.
Nakayama, who was “unusually frank” about the need for democratic nations to ensure Taiwan’s survival, implied that Russia and China are working as allies preparing for a major conflict.
Taiwan’s vulnerability to an invasion from mainland China has become a preoccupation of Indo-Pacific strategists in recent months, as People’s Liberation Army forces escalate their military drills around the island.
“I think the Taiwanese are really concerned,” he said. “And also, they’re focusing on the two big countries collaborating and [presenting] a lot of threat towards Taiwan.”
“We have to protect Taiwan as a democratic country,” Nakayama said before suggesting that world leaders may have erred during the Cold War by seeming to concede that Taiwan would eventually be reunited with mainland China. “Was it right? … I don’t know.”
China’s Foreign Ministry protested his description of Taiwan as a “country” and alleged that Tokyo is trying to portray China as a threat in order to justify its own military buildup.
“This is extremely irresponsible and dangerous,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said. “The politician in question flagrantly refers to Taiwan as a ‘country’ on multiple occasions, severely violating principles set out in the four political documents including the China-Japan Joint Statement and its solemn and repeated commitment of not seeing Taiwan as a country. We ask Japan to make crystal clarification, and ensure that such things won’t happen again.”
Nakayama emphasized throughout the talk that tensions in the Indo-Pacific have a direct bearing on American security, especially in light of coordination between China and Russia.
“Seventy years ago, we attacked Pearl Harbor, but now the U.S. and Japan [are] very good allies, one of the best allies all over the world,” he said, noting that Russia is conducting naval drills in the Pacific this week. “I don’t want to remind [us of the attack] 70 years ago, but we have to be careful of the exercising of the Russians. They are taking place [off] the western side of that, Honolulu, I mean, in Hawaii.”
Russian officials described their “missile and artillery firings” in the Pacific as an equipment check. “In the course of practical measures, the warships jointly repelled a notional enemy’s air attack,” the Russian Pacific Fleet’s press office said Wednesday per state media. “The exercise was intended to check the reliable operation of shipborne weapons in a hot climate.”
For Nakayama, such operations make clear that Japan and the U.S. have a common problem that needs to be deterred jointly.
“Honolulu to Japan, this zone is becoming — [the] Chinese and the Russians come in this zone,” he said. “So, [for] the United States, the protection line is going to be backwards a little bit.”

The Japs got infected by the Western virus of pornography!! It seems they can only produce porn nowadays as their males have become nothing but feminized emasculated cross-gender cuck fags. Many a samurai are turning over in their graves doing triple somersaults!!!!
You forgot “infantilized”. Japan has become a nation of kidults.
I remember visiting Tokyo in 1989 and noticing that Japanese culture was extinct. They’re more sold out Western than Western nations. Any Samurai would vomit at the sight.
Not just porn, cartoon porn.
How did they turn a hard and tough nation into what it is today?
It’s Karma. You know the things they did in WWII (Nanking massacre, Unit 731,…) really rivaled the atrocities of the german/euro fascists.
The germans are being shamed out of existence since 75 years, theres not much left, its in much worse shape the Japan.
It’s interesting how the japs deal with a similar past, it’s actually the polar opposite. They just suppress everything, ignore it and don’t admit to anything.
Either way both peoples are slowly disappeaing, demographically. It also doesn’t help that they are both puppets of a declining, pathetic genocidal regime.
Japs were terror bombed and nuked by the US, then bombed and nuked with US sick anti-culture for 70 years. Now they are the most idiotic, degenerate society in the world.
this is pure Japanese propaganda, AKA zionist’s puppet which should feed themselves with more Fukushima delicacies
This Jap idiot needs to be put back in his Bushido box,its utter bollocks!
Japan i love them but they need a regime change Liberal is suck
Typical Fear/Hate-Mongering and a ginormous pile of russo- + sinophobe dog poop…the Japanese so-called ‘Author’ of this Propaganda piece surely suffers from a pathological case of ‘Stockholm Syndrom’.
Didn’t the Nipponese Empire learn its lesson *yet*?
There are only spineless slaves to the waning US empire left in Japan.
These tame Japs are pathetic, the worst sort of comprador scum. The Japanese were once a proud warrior people, but now they are roaches, lowly and grovelling to the boot on their neck. Instead of defending their nation and culture, Jap men these days are content to dress up like school girls and masturbate to anime.
Only a real uninformed, misinformed, gullible, easily brainwashed idiot with no sense of history or even geography would trust or believe the Jap politicians. The fact is the Japs know that they are smarter and more clever, evil, diabolical and despicable than their whore masters in Washington, DC. The Japs are using the stupid, immature, infantile, simplistic minded Uncle Shmuels to protect them from Russia, Chine and the DPRK while Uncle Shnuel is using the little Japs as cannon fodder against these same countries.
“Yasuhide Nakayama”, isn’t that a brand of worst king of toilet paper?
So, if I get this right. NATO is exercising naval drills in Black sea. Well, by Japanese standards of contemplating that means, that NATO is just about to attack Sevastopol.
The japanese puppet will say and do what he is told. He could have elaborated on the “president” of Taiwan, tsai ing wen and how she was groomed in london for many years.
He also could have mentioned how over 90℅ of the people of Taiwan are ethnic Han Chinese. Instead he denigrates his own people by chastising them, bringing up pearl harbour. Pathetic.
Good Lord, a Japanese official with severe case of projecting own (aggressive) historical issues onto others – and apparently with very little self-awareness!
What about massive US Nato warships firing Sea Breeze 2021 on the Russian coast “Mr Japan….”
Russians, Chinese and Godzilla! Only Batman and japanese LGBT anime enema manga tanga can save Pearl Harbor 🤣
Its not western people we hate you mongo. Its your elits and their foreign policy we really hate.
Stupid fkn hillbilly redneck inbred trash. Go eat some more zionist a** and pay your taxes on time. The idiot inbreds from england want their cut.
Russia and China do indeed have some very long range missiles and will on occasion test them because the U.S. has this fantasy that we will be able to launch stand off attacks against either their merchant shipping or coastal cities. Politicians, think tank guys, and some even navy guys will write stuff like that every so often. Russia and China will make it hurt. They are not Syria and are not going to let us sling 100 cruise missiles at them and let it go unanswered.
BTW the incidence where the orange baboon fired that barage of Tomahawks [59! 1 million USD a pop] at Syria, after that staged false-flag CW attack by their terrorist proxies, from those just 26 came thru and did only limited damage. It’s quiet pathetic for the ‘All Mighty’ AmeriCunt War and Terrror Machine.
By chinese logic, any country that has Taiwan embassy and refer Taiwan as a COUNTRY is an enemy, that is a lot of enemy
Mercury and radiation poisoning are showing their effects on japs…
A pearl harbor style attack would mean carriers and swarms of jets. Thats BS from the get go. As there are over the horizon radars and sat recon. The fleet could be seen running out from their home port. U.S. would wait for them with all their hunter killer subs and SAM launchers would deny any operations above or near Hawaii the same as it is denied over Crimea. The only way to strike pearl harbor is with long range cruise missiles, nuke tipped fired from a sub or with an ICBM. All other attempts would result in a bloodbath on the attacking side. All that said there is no reason to attack Pearl, Langley and D.C. would be lot more logical targets.
Are you not forgetting about MacDonalds?
