Washington Report by Yoshiki Hidaka on '09 Nov. 8th

- Interviewer: Yoshiki Hidaka, Researcher of Hudson Institute
- Interviewee: >"Stephen John Hadley", Former deputy national security advisor
: >"Fred Barnes", Executive editor of The Weekly Standard
China executes on-duty deployment of intercontinental ballistic missiles, and has already deployed more than 2,000 mid- and short-range missiles that can attack Japan on the Taiwan opposite coast.
China pushes forward large scale military expansion, but the President Barack Obama strengthens pro-China position rapidly, and it begins to be said that the times of G2 now.
Sino-US alliance could be possible if it goes as it is. Can Japan count on US nuclear umbrella as it is being until now?
Let's ask Mr. Stephen John Hadley, former deputy national security advisor in the Bush administration, who was person in charge of pushing forward an aggressive foreign measures for countries such as China and so on.
1st. Section with Mr. Hadley. Are China and the U.S. to decide whole matters?
- It isn't good to decide Asian issues by only China and the U.S.
- The U.S. will urge China to respect human rights.
- It is crucial that the U.S. will continue to keep its military presence in Asia and west the Pacific Ocean.

2nd. Section with Mr. Hadley. Why the U.S. delisted North Korea from terror sponsors?
- The U.S. delisted North Korea from terror sponsors in order to continue dialogue.
- Japan had better not to dangle military expansion and nuclear armament.
- Kim Jong Il is still deciding whole matters.
Comment;
The real reason of the Bush Administration to delist North Korea from terror sponsors is easy -- former president George W. Bush needed a "symbol mark" as his tenure.
The Iraq War is a contemplete failure -- not only the U.S. failed to find WMD out but also has failed to establish pro-U.S stable democratic regime.
So he needed diplomatic "credit" before his stepping down. As the result, the U.S. betrayed Japan.

3rd. Section with Mr. Hadley. China's missiles are threat for Japan
- The Bush Administration tried to halt China to deploy missiles in the coastal regions opposite to Taiwan.
- China's missiles are also threat for Japan.
- Relocation of US marines from Okinawa Pref. to Guam doesn't mean change of U.S. Asia and the Pacific strategy.

4th. Section. The Obama Administration that dislikes confrontation
- The Obama Administration is really a pro-China regime.
- For example, Secretary of Treasury Timothy Geithner once lived in China and are fluent in Mandarin.
- Mr. Geithner refrains to criticize China to be currency manipulator.
- Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is also a pro-China and anti-Japan politician.
- Ms. Clinton doesn't criticize China over human rights problems such an in Tibet And Uyghur.
- When it comes to financial bail out and economic stimulus measures, China lends money to the U.S. via purchasing Treasury bonds.
- So the U.S. feels deeply indebted to China.
- The Obama Administration decided to withdraw missile defense system deployment plan in east Europe.
- Russia and France recognize this decision as weakness of the U.S.
- Even though U.S. force is still powerful, the Obama Administration has little intention to utilize that politically.
- 5th. Section with Mr. Hadley. Can Japan count on U.S. nuclear umbrella?
- The Obama Administration must resolve frustration and unease of Japanese.
- Destruction of missile defense system was a mistake.
- In spite of the expression of the President, U.S. power is still great.
Comment;
At present, "Sino-U.S alliance" is nothing more than an armchair argument. Further more, at least in the near future, it is just an absurdity.
In principle, the U.S. and China are hypothesis enemies each other. If dream of Sino-U.S. alliance comes true, it must be in the longer future.
At present, Japan should concern about China's rapid military expansion and shaking of U.S. hegemony.
