Nuclear weapons development must be consistent

another way of saying, Japan isn't going to back off an inch. So how is my servitude comment not the realities on the ground, cause all I see is us back off if we were to be, to use your words, responsible.

Please enlighten me.

Responsibly,

I will not pretend to know the desires of my nation's government, nor do I pretend to know the desires of your nation's government in these future talks. Let us leave some optimism and faith in their abilities to ambulate necessary policies to re-engage each other. After-all, we know , already, the current situation on the ground.

what do you mean by responsible, let's not evade the question, non of us on this forum represent the government, so either we use personal opinion or we all stop posting.

Don't say negotiate, that's too vague, something specific.

The fact this is the second or third post you didn't mention anything specific means exactly what I said, only china is backing off, according to your definition of responsible.

I always suspect the version of compromise the West's back friends want is for us to lose all our claims. This type of zero-sum game where we back off, walk home empty hand while they gain because it is the responsibility of big power to give up. LOL

We have to ameliorate our differences. And by this, I believe both of us need to abide our 1978 Treaty of Peace and Friendship. Remember, that Japan abrogated our 1972 Joint Communique with Taipei to engage Beijing. In regards to our varying claims in the East Sea, we should let later generations deal with this issue.

你说大话,我的朋友?

Who broke that 1978 Treaty of Peace and Friendship first? Why is always us that are to blame for everything? LOL This double standard version is very typical of the West's allies.

thank you, maybe if we take it further up the rear we can sit at the grown ups table? You engaged us, because we are a major country, and the Americans started to warm to China due to the political climate at the time. You didn't come to our aid when Americans were embargoing us then or even recently, with the arms embargo.

Even if that weren't true, China has made tons of money for Japan, we have paid you back for whatever it is you did then. You know those stories about Chinese being pushed out of their land? It's not just the Japanese, but you guys were involved. The price of development, it's not to say you are evil, but it is to say we have paid you back, if you must go that route.


You last sentence confirmed my theory, and your entire post really, just confirmed, status quo, the status quo we weren't invited to when created.

So bottom line leaving it to future generations is your way of telling me, Japan is not going to compromise on anything right now, but obviously we should to be responsible.


However, I will add, you leaving it to the future is fine with me, because our strength will be far greater in the future, while Japan will remain more or less the same, you are already developed, and while that doesn't mean no development, it does mean you can't keep pace of development with a developing country.
