“The president's lucky in who he has as counterparts. I was doing the math on this, and it's been at least 20 years since an American president could travel to Japan and Korea and count on the leaders in both countries being so forthrightly pro-alliance.”

“At its core this (trip) is about building out the alliance network in East Asia, in part to counter any Chinese actions against Taiwan.”

“There is no coded messaging here. China is the challenge and they said as much, then detailed all the ways the alliance is determined to work to counter its destabilising activities.”

“This is clearly a combined message reflecting a common concern, not a case of U.S. arm-twisting to get Japan to sign onto vague euphemisms. In particular, the expression of joint resolve to respond if necessary to destabilising activities comes across as a powerful expression of alliance solidarity and determination.”

“A Taiwan emergency is a Japanese emergency, and therefore an emergency for the Japan-US alliance. People in Beijing, [Chinese] President Xi Jinping in particular, should never have a misunderstanding in recognizing this. A stronger Taiwan, a thriving Taiwan, and a Taiwan that guarantees freedom and human rights are also in Japan's interests. Of course, this is also in the interest of the whole world. A military action targeting Taiwan would also lead to 'economic suicide' for China, despite it being one of the world's top economies, and significantly affect the global economy given China's close economic and trade ties with the rest of the world.”

“They are [NATO allies, Taiwan, South Korea] ... entities we've made agreements with based on not a civil war they're having on that island or in South Korea, but on an agreement where they have a unity government that, in fact, is trying to keep bad guys from doing bad things to them. We have made - kept every commitment. We made a sacred commitment to Article 5 that if in fact anyone were to invade or take action against our NATO allies, we would respond. Same with Japan, same with South Korea, same with - Taiwan. It's not even comparable to talk about that.”

“It is ridiculous that the two leaders ignored the question of Japan's decision to dump contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea, an issue many countries in the world are concerned about. It is such a hypocrisy and double standards for them to simply put aside the well-being and health of the world and fully devote themselves to pursuing a narrow-minded issue about the so-called strategic competition with China.”

“We also had serious talks on China's influence over the peace and prosperity of the Indo-Pacific and the world at large. We agreed to oppose any attempts to change the status quo by force or coercion in the East and South China seas. At the same time, we agreed on the necessity for each of us to engage in frank dialogue with China and in so doing, to pursue stability of international relations while upholding universal values.”

“The wording of this statement is surprising in its strength, particularly from Japan's perspective as Tokyo generally prefers to take a more delicate or diplomatic approach. I would have to say that this is quite unprecedented. But it is also clear that there has been a lot of frustration within the Japanese government that Beijing is effectively ignoring the international community's appeals for moderation and concern at the economic, diplomatic and military power that they are using in the region. That has less impact on Japan, of course, but it does enable Beijing to exert a lot more influence over smaller and less developed nations in the region.”

“We really come to reaffirm the fact that the alliance is as we'd like to say the cornerstone of our peace, security and prosperity. The economic relationship between the United States and Japan is, as you know very well, one of the strongest in the world.”

“The Biden-Harris Administration is strengthening America's relationships not only with our allies, but the relationships among them. None are more important than Japan and the Republic of Korea. We will explore opportunities to expand our cooperation in new areas such as tackling COVID-19 and addressing climate change, and are working together to reinvigorate trilateral cooperation on the North Korea challenge.”
