February 7 became a symbolic day in terms of the international situation regarding territory and sovereignty.<\/p>\n

On that day, Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru and US President Donald Trump met for their first summit.<\/p>\n

According to the statement released after the meeting, the two leaders \u201cexpressed their determination to continuously cooperate to realize a free and open Indo-Pacific.\u201d The two leaders also \u201creiterated their strong opposition to any attempts by the People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC) to change the status quo by force or coercion in the East China Sea\u201d and \u201creaffirmed their strong opposition to the PRC\u2019s unlawful maritime claims, militarization of reclaimed features, and threatening and provocative activities in the South China Sea.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the Taiwan issue, the two leaders \u201cemphasized the importance of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait as an indispensable element of security and prosperity for the international community.\u201d Also, it is noteworthy that they \u201copposed any attempts to unilaterally change the status quo by force or coercion\u201d in the context of the Taiwan issue and that they \u201cexpressed support for Taiwan\u2019s meaningful participation in international organizations.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the Senkaku Islands, the two leaders \u201creaffirmed that Article V of the U.S.-Japan Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security applies to the Senkaku Islands, and reiterated their strong opposition to any action that seeks to undermine Japan\u2019s longstanding and peaceful administration of the Senkaku Islands. \u201c<\/p>\n

It is important that the two leaders affirmed the concept of \u201ca free and open Indo-Pacific\u201d in this statement as the basis of the bilateral relations.\u00a0 How to put this concept into practice by the two countries remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

For the Japanese nationals, February 7 is \u2018The Northern Territories Day\u201d. Russia’s illegal occupation of Japan’s Northern Territories continues. In this context, it is important to note that, as reported, there is a movement within Russia to link the invasion of Ukraine with the occupation of the Northern Territories and to increase patriotic sentiment. The situation over territory and sovereignty in East Asia is directly linked to security issues on a global scale.<\/p>\n
