China Accuses Japan of 'Whitewashing Military Buildup', Urges International Vigilance
Japan's 'So-Called Facts' Disguise Remilitarization
Mao Ning, spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, stated on June 3 that Japan's 'so-called facts' evade real issues and deceive itself, serving as nothing more than a disguise for remilitarization. Mao Ning pointed out that Japan avoids discussing its militaristic crimes of aggression and expansion, its international legal obligations, and has consistently failed to deeply reflect on its history. She further criticized Japan for using 'collective self-defense' to package its overseas troop deployments, 'developing counterattack capabilities' to embellish its strengthening of offensive forces, and 'equipment and technology cooperation' to conceal the export of lethal weapons.
International Community Urged to Be Vigilant Against Japan's Military Buildup
Mao Ning emphasized that Japan is attempting to deceive both domestic and international communities through a fallacy of semantics. She asserted that numbers do not lie, and word games cannot whitewash Japan's actual military buildup and expansion. Mao Ning urged the international community to be more vigilant the more Japan tries to conceal its actions, expressing profound concern over Japan's military maneuvers.
