Political implications perhaps being that Japan intends to perform self defense at long range?

Last week, China's Liaoning aircraft carrier sailed between two Japanese islands near Taiwan for the first time, accompanied by two destroyers.

The ships entered Japan's contiguous zone -- an area up to 24 nautical miles from the country's coast -- Tokyo said, calling the incident "totally unacceptable". China said it had complied with international law.

Ha.

Not just Japan. Germany, Australia and New Zealand navy ships sailed through.

Japan is the capper.

Chicoms have been having a psychotic breakdown, threatening Taiwan (as usual, but more often), Philippines, Malaysia and Japan.

And they’ve been providing military equipment to Putin.

People are getting sick of pandering to their psychosis.

And Trump showed they don’t need to be pandered to or appeased.

What the worlds needs now, is Trump, sweet Trump...
