KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia: The US plans to deploy medium- and shorter-range missiles in Asia with the help of Japan create additional threats to the security of Russia and China.
This was already mentioned by the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Nikolai Patrushev in August 2023. The Pentagon's plans assign an important role to Japan in deploying medium- and shorter-range missiles in the Asia-Pacific region, which creates additional security threats for the countries of the region and destroys the regional security architecture.
In order to maintain its imaginary hegemony, the US is unceremoniously expanding its military infrastructure in the Asia-Pacific region, bringing it closer to the borders of Russia and China. As examples of such actions, he cited the formation of the AUKUS military alliance, arms supplies to Taiwan, and the creation of a new alliance of the "Pacific Four" of the US-Japan-Australia-Philippines.
It is noted that Tokyo is rapidly increasing its military budget and offensive weapons purchases, focusing on NATO indicators, and is even considering obtaining nuclear weapons. It is indicated that the Pentagon is preparing to deploy two promising multi-sphere brigades in the Asia-Pacific region in 2028.
These units will be able to strike with long-range precision weapons, including hypersonic missiles with a range of 5.5 thousand kilometers, and land-based Tomahawk cruise missiles with a launch range of 2.4 thousand kilometers.
The Japanese island of Io is being considered as a possible location for the deployment of these weapons.
