“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.”
