00:00In the midst of China's alliance, Japan also gave up any country that is not subject to the Reciprocal Access Agreement or RAA with the Philippines.
00:12This also answered the division of China during World War II.
00:16J.P. Soriano is the witness.
00:21After the historic signing of the Reciprocal Access Agreement or RAA between Japan and the Philippines,
00:28the Deputy Press Secretary of Japan, Kaneko Mariko, said that no other country is subject to it.
00:58On the benefit of the countries in this region.
01:02This is what Japan said after China agreed to the RAA between Japan and the Philippines.
01:08China said that any cooperation between countries should not be a threat to regional peace and stability.
01:16It should also not be targeted or destroyed in the interest of other countries.
01:21Under the RAA, Japan's Self-Defense Forces will enter the country and Philippine soldiers in Japan for joint training exercises,
01:32such as the strengthening of the Visiting Forces Agreement between the Philippines and America.
01:37China also emphasized what happened during World War II.
01:42More than eight decades have passed.
01:45China said it has a serious responsibility in the history of Japan.
01:49Because of its aggression and colonial rule in the Philippines,
01:54Japan needs to learn first before engaging in joint military exercises.
02:01What clarification would Japan like to provide in response to China's statements?
02:07Well, since the end of the war, the past war,
02:10Japan has been devoted to maintaining and contributing to the peace and stability of this region.
02:18And as well as the stability and peace of the world.
02:22And for this reason, Japan is cooperating with the Philippines and also the like-minded countries and our allies
02:31together to maintain the international order based on rule of law.
02:37And because we believe that this international order based on rule of law,
02:44upholding this is very important in maintaining peace and stability.
