Sun Xiaobo, head of the Chinese delegation attending the 81st session of the General Assembly's Committee on Disarmament and International Security and director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs's arms control department, spoke at the Committee's general debate on the 8th, pointing out that the current Japanese administration is speeding up “re-militarization” and has become a prominent factor threatening regional peace and stability. Sun Xiaobo said that this year marks the 80th anniversary of the Tokyo trial. Back then, Japan joined the United Nations on the premise that it recognized the crimes of militarism and accepted all the contents of the United Nations Charter. However, the current Japanese administration denies the history of aggression, glorifies war crimes, and pays homage to World War II war criminals. At the same time, it continues to strengthen and expand its military forces and accelerate “re-militarization,” which has become a prominent factor threatening regional peace and stability. Japan's current senior officials blatantly made arrogant remarks about not taboo the possession of nuclear weapons in an attempt to abandon the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles.” This is a serious provocation and violation of the international nuclear nonproliferation system. Japan's proposal to delete the “enemy clause” from the Charter of the United Nations is the latest example of challenging the post-war international order under the guise of “national normalization.” Japan should deeply reflect on its history of aggression, completely break with militarism, completely abandon “re-militarization” plans, and earnestly fulfill its international legal obligations on the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons.
