The following is from the introduction to Ms. Sakurai’s “Red Japan,” which I saw in an ad at the bottom of the Sankei Shimbun the other day and bought at a nearby bookstore, thinking it was a must-read.
In this book, she also proves that it is a national treasure defined by Saicho and a supreme national treasure.
It is a must-read not only for Japanese people but also for people all over the world.
Introduction: Japan, Not a Nation
“There are no regulations.　
On March 23, 2021, Chief Cabinet Secretary Katsunobu Kato, who represents the Japanese government and can announce the administration’s intentions, said in response to a question.　
“There is no provision in our country to impose sanctions solely or explicitly based on human rights issues.”　
In China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, more than one million Uyghurs are detained and forced to undergo Chinese education.
Making Muslim Uighurs Chinese means first quitting Islamic beliefs and prohibiting them from living like Uighurs.
Also, the Han Chinese who manage the camp rape young Uyghur women in groups, and Uyghurs who do not follow their instructions are subjected to severe torture.
There are many cases of disabilities and deaths due to torture.
Sterilization of Uyghur men and women is also rampant to reduce the Uyghur population.
These cases have been revealed by the testimonies of Uyghurs, who have courageously started to accuse with their names.
It is also widely known to the international community as it is supported by statistics such as the number of sterilization operations by the Chinese government.
The oppression of different ethnic groups by the Chinese government is not a new phenomenon.
The oppression and persecution of Tibet, Mongolia, and Uyghur have also reached Hong Kong, and China is preparing to extend its evil hand to Taiwan.
China’s history of oppression and persecution is unbroken, and China is undoubtedly the worst country in the world that continues to commit crimes against humanity.
The statement above by the Chief Cabinet Secretary was in response to whether our government would state condemnation against this filthy oppressor of human rights.　
IN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, the U.S. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, recognized the Chinese Communist regime’s oppression of the Uyghurs as genocide on January 19, 2009.
He clearly stated that he would hold China strictly responsible for the Uyghur oppression as a crime against humanity with no statute of limitations.
The Biden administration inherited the same policy as the Trump administration.
On the same day as Pompeo’s statement, the new Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, was asked about the Uyghur oppression at the Senate hearing and answered clearly, “Like Pompeo, I agree that it is genocide by the Chinese government.　
Before the transition of power from Trump to Biden, Congress passed a bill to condemn and impose sanctions on China with unanimous support in the Senate and only one vote against the House of Representatives.
On March 30, 2009, the State Department published its “Human Rights Report 2020,” clearly asserting that the Chinese government is committing “genocide and crimes against humanity” against Uyghurs in Xinjiang.　
Similar criticism has occurred in Europe.
The European Union and the United Kingdom, along with the United States and Canada, have announced sanctions against Chinese officials.
The Netherlands, together with Canada, recognized the Chinese Communist Party’s oppression of the Uyghurs as genocide.　
Nevertheless, our country has not sent out any message.
When asked about it, our government can only say, “there is no regulation.”
