US State Department spokesman John Kirby unwittingly presented evidence of the continuing occupation of Japan by US troops.

The information that was voiced by US State Department spokesman John Kirby is in fact irrefutable proof that Japan is under American occupation. And this is not a figure of speech. Kirby said that Washington and Tokyo reached an "agreement" on the maintenance of US military bases located in Japan. Over the next five years, 8 billions of dollars will be allocated from the state budget of the Land of the Rising Sun for the needs of the American contingent.

Information Agency TASS cites a fragment of a statement by John Kirby:

Financial support from the host country will help preserve the US military presence in Japan.

At the same time, the official representative of the US Foreign Ministry added that the US military presence in Japan is "a guarantee of security in the Asia-Pacific region." And this, according to Kirby, fits perfectly into the concept of the United States.

Currently, there are more than 47 thousands of American military personnel in several US military bases in Japan. At the same time, the Pentagon says that the US military "is ready at any moment to respond to aggression against Japan."

Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the Japanese authorities uncompromisingly agreed to continue and even increase funding for the American occupying forces - the Japanese taxpayers are obliged to allocate 1,6 billion dollars annually for these needs.

Yes, everything is fine - woe to the vanquished. Not only that, American troops occupy the Japanese islands, but the defeated side, as expected, pays for the content of the contingent of occupiers on its territory.

Japan and Germany are two potentially powerful nations. Which regionally can create a very powerful geopolitical advantage, and create centers of geopolitical influence. States do not leave from there because they know this.

Especially considering the technological level of these countries. Let these countries go free - Germany will create a powerful geopolitical hub in Europe (pushing the United States overseas), Japan will create a powerful fleet and troops, pushing China and everyone else in this region (pushing the United States to Honolulu).

Germany, even on a leash in Europe, is a leader.
Germany and Japan are very powerful states. Which the US forces are holding back.

Moreover, which is especially interesting, the very countries are restrained whose economic development is directly related to the huge investments in the economies of these countries and, first of all, from the USA itself, by the way, not only in the post-war period (WWII), but also before it, as well as up to 1st MV. Interesting is not it.

It has been said, so it has been said! Only "potency" is either there or it is not. Judging by the situation, for today, their "potency" does not stir those who "dance" them. And they do not "dance" according to the decree, if they also pay for the "tavern"!

[Major Yurik]

Now I look at the tender "friendly" relations between the Yap and the Yankees and I understand that it turns out that nothing makes the relationship "brotherly" like the nuclear bombing of a future friend!

[volodimer]

You propose to send the "poplar" to the Turks to strengthen mutual relations, so to speak, a tree of peace.

[your1970]

formally, we also do not have a peace treaty with Japan ...

And how to regard it? Samurai turned on the back? Or did America promise again with three boxes?

[spiriolla-45]

What kind of samurai are they? Their grandfathers were samurai, and they are bedding for insolent Yankees. They would have long ago put the hell on their "northern territories" if the Americans hadn't pissed off them. It is a shame to contain the occupiers and consider ourselves to be wars. Yes, it's time to do hara-kiri.

[Volzhanin]

For the time being, Merikos also rule the ball in many matters.
Also a disgrace.

[vic58]

How, how ... Under 50 thousand potential reasons not to arrange a second Hiroshima! And hostages, like pigs, need to be fed so that they don’t run away . They do not trust the states ...

[oblako]

And how to regard it? Samurai turned on the back?

These are such shitty samurai today ... But what is characteristic, on our Kuril Islands, they continue to roll out their lust, and what does this mean? Or do they feel the support of the "big brother", or do they not consider us their winners? It turns out that they don't count, otherwise they would pay for the development of our infrastructure on "their" Kuril Islands ...

In ancient times, they usually gave 3 days to rob the vanquished city, civilized mattresses have been robbing the vanquished Japanese in World War II for 70 years, as progress has progressed.

Where is the vaunted samurai honor? They have them (sometimes in the literal sense), and they pay money, like it ... however.

Do you want the Japanese to make a collective seppuku? From the present kawaii nation, into which the once proud Nihons have degenerated, it is ridiculous to expect such a thing. Apparently, the entire limit of Japanese passionarity was chosen in World War II.
Johnny Kirby amused again. If Psaki "consulted in the office", then this one cuts the truth-womb without any hesitation. No wonder this admiral from the US Navy was fired for stupidity.

[armata37]

Vladislav, no matter how simple it sounds on my part, but there is always a choice, even among the countries you have listed. All Europe has a choice.

We also took a sip in the 90s, but still made a choice - in my country my army protects me and I feed it, and if necessary, I’ll take a gun myself!

[little girl15]

"Independent" Japan was not even given a choice, they said to feed and will feed for more than one decade. Such is the fate of the "liberated" ...

And please pay attention to the fact that among Russians there is an opinion that it was in vain that the USSR was among the winners and not the losers. They would have lost, oh, how great it would have healed. And none of them thinks about the need to plow like "Dad Carlo" in order to live well, and they do not "plow"! The $ 1,6 billion case probably wouldn't have ended. The USSR, and even Russia, is able to pay more! I wonder how much Germany pays for the maintenance of the US occupation forces?

US military "ready at any time to respond to aggression against Japan"

They have already demonstrated their readiness during an attempt to land on a sandy beach in Portugal. And they haven't been fired upon yet, no one bothered them. Calmly "sat and waited, well, when." During this time, they should have been destroyed!

[good7]

Well, yes, per capita GDP oh what a sad! If it would be profitable for them to throw off the Americans, they would have long since thrown off, and so why should they be indignant?

[Teberii]

Everything is as usual "If you can't feed your army, you will feed someone else's."

[sever.56]

What did they want, the Japanese? They should be happy that the states favorably allow them to pay money for the maintenance of the American army, the soldiers of which rape Japanese women with impunity and commit murders, hiding under the fact that the treaty on the status of American soldiers in Japan has such a small fad, which states that A US soldier cannot be tried by a Japanese court, much like a diplomatic officer. In the event of a crime, he simply goes to the states. Take a walk - I do not want ... !!!

Well, Japan is not ashamed! The country that, in fact, barbarously dealt with 2 Japanese cities by dropping 2 nuclear bombs is now the "best" friend for Japan. Or the grandmother completely overshadowed the eyes and brains. In theory, Japan from Russia could get much profitable economic ties than with the United States, but the eclipse of reason is a hindrance.

[rotmistr60]

$ 8 billion will be allocated from the state budget of the Land of the Rising Sun for the needs of the American contingent.

The Americans are doing great. Not only do they have bases in the territory of another country, so this country also contains these bases. It can be seen from the Japanese in 45 brains completely bent off. They are still under the American heel, and their mouths are thrown to the Russian islands.

[obstructia]

Why a reservation? The Japanese were simply reminded of their place .. at one facility.

That's how we had to in Germany, etc., after 1945 to do!
And we all played "brotherhood" ...
Now we have no bases there, no "frailty"!
In Syria, I wonder what we’ll do.
Clearly, we are not fighting Syria, but - still?
What do you think, comrades?

the abundance of award straps on this jacket is impressive. the Japanese “proud” people are probably still not fed up with the Yankistan occupation. as people say ... who likes something ... everyone has their own taste, said the Yankees taking off a monkey .... ..

[Hell's Angel]

Yes, they even give a "planochka" for an independent trip to the toilet outside their base!
That hung like a Christmas tree.

People in Japan are tired of the base and the government is not, that’s the whole secret.

This is a payment for those atrocities that committed yap in Asia in World War II. Only the plaintiff is not the one.

[Leprekon]

At the same time, an official representative of the US Foreign Ministry added that the US military presence in Japan is "a guarantee of security in the Asia-Pacific region."

the most important thing, as always missed in the details, since, in fact, it sounds like this - “a guarantee of security USA in the Asia-Pacific region. ”
And guarantees like cockroaches all over the world! SES of Russia recommends combating cockroaches with dichlorvos!

In the next war, we will defeat the defeated and make slaves of them, as the Yankees did with the Germans, Yapes, and others.

No, dear. It will be as always. It pushes Russia to complete the cucumbers, rebuild everything, and then they will accuse it of excessive use of force.

[Raptor_RB]

The classic concept of regressors from science fiction novels. Dominion troops restrain the development of colonies at a technological and military level that does not pose a threat to the overlord. From the point of view of the United States - an extremely logical and robust approach. Only now the world from this logic will soon turn blue and go corpse stains.

He slept more on the phrase- fully fits into the concept of the United States.
