China's intercontinental missile test is behind Japan's "concerns".
The picture comes from the Internet
The missile test has attracted international attention
On September 25, 2024, a majestic rocket soared into the sky, streaked across the sky, and successfully hit a predetermined target in the Pacific Ocean, a routine ICBM test launch conducted by the Chinese People's Liberation Army Rocket Force
This feat has aroused widespread concern in the international community, among which the Japanese government's response is the most eye-catching, Japan immediately expressed "concern", saying that China's missile test behavior has made Japan and the international community uneasy, and Japan media have also followed suit, exaggerating the "threat" of China's missile test
The historical roots of Japan's "concerns".
The picture comes from the Internet
Japan's response to China's missile test launch is closely related to its unique historical situation and practical predicament
First of all, the shadow of history, during World War II, Japan suffered from the atomic bombing, and there is still a deep fear of nuclear weapons, and the Japan government and people are highly vigilant against any military force that may threaten its security, especially nuclear weapons
In recent years, China's rapid economic development and growing military strength have led to Japan's fear that China's rise will change the regional balance of power and threaten its interests in East Asia
In addition, there is the pressure of political factors, Japan maintains a strong military alliance with United States, United States has always asked Japan to strengthen its military strength to meet the challenges brought about by China's rise, and the Japan government also needs to consider the factor of the US-Japan alliance when dealing with China

United States's rational attitude
Unlike Japan, the United States has been relatively calm about China's ICBM test, and the United States Pentagon said China had notified United States of its intention to test an ICBM in advance and considered it a step in the right direction
The United States government believes that instead of panicking about China's military development, it is better to enhance mutual trust and ease tensions through dialogue and exchanges, and the United States also realizes that the direction of Sino-US relations has a major impact on the global pattern, and the two sides need to cooperate in competition and compete in cooperation
In contrast, Japan's "concerns" seem exaggerated, after all, China's missile tests were not directed at any specific country, but were routine military activities aimed at safeguarding national security and world peace

The development history of the Dongfeng missile family
The development of China's ICBMs is a microcosm of China's scientific and technological progress and the enhancement of its military strength
On May 18, 1980, China successfully test-fired the first generation of intercontinental missiles, the Dongfeng-5, and the birth of the Dongfeng-5 marked a major breakthrough in the development of missile weapons
In recent years, China has developed a new generation of intercontinental missile, the DF-41, which has a range of more than 12,000 kilometers and is currently one of the world's longest-range ICBMs
The picture comes from the Internet
The continuous development of China's intercontinental missiles not only demonstrates China's military strength, but also sends a clear signal: China's development is to safeguard national security and promote world peace, not to claim hegemony
The future direction of Sino-Japanese relations
Sino-Japanese relations are one of the most important bilateral relations in East Asia, and the two countries have close ties in the economic, cultural and other fields, but there are also differences such as history and territorial issues
Historical issues are an unavoidable obstacle in Sino-Japanese relations, and during World War II, Japan committed crimes of aggression against China, which brought profound disasters to the Chinese people, and these pains still linger today
The picture comes from the Internet
Territorial disputes are also a sensitive issue in bilateral relations, and the existence of territorial disputes between China and Japan, such as the Diaoyu Islands, has also become a major obstacle to bilateral relations
At the same time, however, China and Japan have close cooperative relations in the economic field, and both sides are important trading partners of each other, so the two countries should strengthen political dialogue, enhance mutual trust, properly handle differences, and promote the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations
China's development is an unstoppable trend, and Japan and other countries should view China's rise rationally, walk in the same direction as China, jointly maintain regional peace and stability, and promote the progress of human society
China and Japan should look at each other with a more open and rational attitude, resolve differences with wisdom and courage, and promote cooperation with goodwill and sincerity

Deep targets of Chinese missile tests
China's ICBM test is not a simple military exercise, but contains deeper strategic considerations
The picture comes from the Internet
First of all, this is an important means for China to maintain national security, as a responsible power, China must have strong military strength to deter war and maintain peace, the successful test launch of intercontinental missiles has demonstrated China's technological strength in the field of nuclear weapons and enhanced China's military deterrence
As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, China shoulders the heavy responsibility of maintaining world peace and stability, and China's missile test has sent a clear signal to the international community that China has the ability to make due contributions to global security
In recent years, China's comprehensive national strength has been continuously enhanced, and its influence on the international stage has become increasingly prominent
It is worth noting that China's missile test launch is not aimed at any specific country, but is a routine military activity, and China's development path is peaceful, open, and cooperative, and the enhancement of its military strength is to better safeguard national security and regional stability, not to claim hegemony

Japan's "worry" stems from inner fear
Compared with United States's rational attitude, Japan's "worry" stems from deep fear
First of all, Japan has suffered the trauma of nuclear weapons, and still has a deep psychological shadow over nuclear weapons and strong military power, and Japan cannot help but feel panic and uneasiness in the face of China's growing military strength
Second, Japan fears that China's rise will change the balance of power in East Asia and threaten its interests in the region, and as an important United States ally in Asia, Japan also needs to take into account the U.S.-Japan alliance, so it is more cautious in dealing with China's military development
The picture comes from the Internet
In addition, historical issues are also an important factor restricting Sino-Japanese relations; during World War II, Japan committed serious crimes of aggression against China, and these pains still linger today, and Japan's wariness of China also stems from fear and guilt about history
In general, Japan's "worries" stem from its unique historical situation and practical predicament, and in the face of China's rise, Japan is full of anxiety and fear, and it is difficult to view China's military development objectively and rationally
Resolve differences and promote cooperation
Despite the historical legacies and practical contradictions, China and Japan should still view each other with a more open and rational attitude, work together to resolve differences, and promote the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations
First, the two sides should strengthen political dialogue, enhance mutual trust, properly handle differences, seek common ground and find entry points for cooperation through frank communication
Second, China and Japan are each other's important trading partners, and economic cooperation is the foundation of bilateral relations, and the two sides should further expand the areas of cooperation to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results
At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen interaction in cultural exchanges, which are the link to enhance mutual understanding, and the two countries should strengthen cultural exchanges, enhance people-to-people friendship, and eliminate estrangement
In short, China and Japan should look at each other with a more open and rational attitude, resolve differences with wisdom and courage, and promote cooperation with goodwill and sincerity, so that they can truly achieve mutual benefit and win-win results and contribute to the peace and development of Asia and the world
