As Congress continues to waver over the next package of aid to Ukraine, Japan’s foreign minister promised additional assistance on her recent trip to Kyiv, including $37 million for a NATO-administered Ukraine fund, new electricity generators and an unmanned aircraft-detecting system.
The visit came on the back of Tokyo’s surprise decision in December to facilitate a transfer of its Patriot missiles to the United States — ostensibly to backfill stocks being depleted to help Ukraine.
Japan’s leaders, whose country also faces the prospect of an armed conflict in the Indo-Pacific, understand well that the outcome of the war matters to them — as it does to Europe and the United States.
Few things will dissuade geopolitical adventurists in Beijing, Tehran or Pyongyang from pursuing their dreams like a Russian defeat in Ukraine and the resulting challenge to President Vladimir Putin’s grip on power.
