Since the appearance of the Republic of Korea (RK or South Korea) and
Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) in 1948, the two Koreas
are completely separated politically, socially, culturally and militarily.
Almost immediately thereafter, the idea of uniting the two countries was born
but interpreted in radically different ways from both sides of the
thirty-eighth parallel.
What are the Basic Common Interests Between USA, China and Japan?
It is apparent that the most important common interests cover the
economic cooperation and development, considering that the United States, China
and Japan
are already major economic partners, strongly linked with trade. For the United
States, China is the largest trade partner while Japan takes the second place. For
America, China and Japan
rank respectively second and third in volumes of trade. Japan trades most with China, followed in a close distance by the U.S.
What are the Main Security Threats for China, Japan and USA in East Asia?
Japan:
·
The growing Chinese economy may prove to be a challenge for Japan's economic status and role in Asia and the world.
·
The rising military spending of
China in an attempt to build
more effective capabilities and their increased activity in Asia
is taken with alarm by the Japanese military strategists. Many senior
politicians called the
rearmament of China a "threat" to the national security of Japan.
Is there a strategic rivalry between China and Japan?
U.S., Japan and China are undeniably the most important
strategic forces in East Asia. The stability
there depends mainly on the relationship between the three countries. When we
look closer at their relationship, we will discover something really alarming. While there are negotiations and dialogue between Japan,
USA and Australia, as well as between China, Russia
and India, the lack of any
mechanism for joint talks between leaders of Tokyo,
Beijing and Washington to discuss trilateral relations
and regional issues, is at least worrisome.
