China’s top diplomat has urged Japan and South Korea to foster a sense of “strategic autonomy” from the West and cooperate with Beijing to “revitalize Asia,” amid rising tensions between China and the two neighboring American allies.

    If the USA liked Asia so much, Japan would be in NATO considering how much they’ve waggled their tails after being brutally nuked, twice.

      The U.S already has a defense treaty with Japan.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Mutual_Cooperation_and_Security_between_the_United_States_and_Japan

      "Article 5 commits the United States to defend Japan if it is attacked by a third party. "

      Given your profile, yea your comment checks out.

        It isn’t NATO, it doesn’t have anywhere near the same impact.
