⚠️ Big warning from Germany! Last Friday, top scholar Richard A. Black at the Schiller Institute warned that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's recent comments on Taiwan and her plan to revise Japan's Three Non-Nuclear Principles could spark extremely grave consequences worldwide.
Black pointed to two red flags:
- 📚 Textbook twists: He said history books in Japan and the Taiwan region are reshaping wartime events, risking a distorted collective memory.
- ☢️ Nuclear shift: Takaichi's push to alter the non-nuclear stance could open the door to a new arms race.
According to Black, these moves signal a revival of Japanese fascism, and he argued that the Chinese mainland has every right to respond firmly. His stark message? If these trends continue, we might be staring down the barrel of another global conflict.
