The United States and Japan recently held “2+2” consultations on diplomacy and defense, announcing the reorganization of the US military command in Japan. Meanwhile, they held the ministerial-level Extended Deterrence Dialogue (EDD) for the first time and reached a consensus on strengthen the system of defending Japan by deploying US combat capabilities, including its nuclear weapons. As a victim of nuclear detonations, Japan has been actively seeking “nuclear sharing” arrangements with the United States, the very country that dropped nuclear bombs on its territory. What a serious case of “Stockholm Syndrome”!
