NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida stressed with concern “the growing military cooperation between Russia and China”,

China is following the course of the Russian war against Ukraine and is drawing conclusions that may influence its future decisions and actions. This was said by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at a joint press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, Bloomberg wrote.

“If President Putin wins Ukraine, it will send a signal that authoritarian regimes can achieve their goals through brute force. This is dangerous,” Stoltenberg said.

The NATO Secretary General mentioned that the same thing that is happening now in Europe could happen in East Asia: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has caused Japan to fear that China may make similar demands on Taiwan, and Tokyo considers such a move a direct impact on his security.

Stoltenberg stressed that transatlantic and Indo-Pacific security are deeply intertwined and what happens in this region is important for NATO, and both NATO and Japan know this.

In a joint statement outlining plans to intensify NATO-Japan cooperation, Stoltenberg and Kishida stressed with concern Russia’s “growing military cooperation with China,” including through joint operations and exercises. near Japan. They also said they “strongly oppose any unilateral attempt to change the status quo through force or coercion in the East China Sea”, calling for a “peaceful resolution of problems on both sides of the Strait”.

It can be recalled that the United States reacted to China’s entry into Taiwan’s airspace.
