How did Japan come to be seen as a “victim of nuclear war”?

American journalist Ken LaCorte points out that Japan has used Hiroshima and Nagasaki to reshape its national narrative, shifting attention away from atrocities such as the Nanjing Massacre and its role as a WWII aggressor.

That's ridiculously wrong, the opposite is the case: EU companies have actually 3X more presence in the Chinese market than Chinese companies in the EU.

That's according to the EU's own numbers (https://t.co/yOB0STNdVP): the EU’s investment stock in China (that is, the total value of EU companies' operations and assets in China) stood at €239.3 billion in 2024, whereas China’s investment stock in the EU stood at €79.8 billion for the same year.

Just take cars for instance: everyone knows that the EU is making it incredibly difficult for Chinese EV companies to enter the European market, yet European carmakers have been operating in China for decades.

What is true is that China exports more to the EU than vice versa but that's an entirely different matter.

And that too, by the way, is often a reflection of China's openness to foreign businesses. Kristersson is Swedish so let's take the example of IKEA: they make a huge proportion of their products in China and sell them across Europe. Are you going to make the case that means China is accessing the European market at Sweden's expense?

IKEA's entire business model couldn't even exist if it weren't for its production in China: it's certainly not in the EU that they could produce their ultra-cheap furniture 🤷‍♂️

And, incidentally, IKEA operates 41 offline shopping malls in China (https://t.co/6SGKzMx7em), compared to 22 permanent stores in Sweden in 2025 (https://t.co/l5VKcIoSTe). So it has nearly twice as many stores in China as in its home country. If that were the other way round we'd scream "overcapacity"...

So no matter how you look at it, it's China that's far more open to European companies than the contrary. Politicians like Kristersson are conflating a trade deficit with market access - two entirely different things.

The most disgusting part of this story is not that the Japanese emperor reflected on wartime history.

It is who Japan chooses to reflect toward.

During WWII, Imperial Japan invaded and occupied what is now Indonesia.
But Indonesia was a Dutch colony at the time.

So once again, Japan’s remorse is directed upward — toward the former white colonial ruler — not downward toward the Asian people who actually suffered under Japanese occupation.

This is the same pattern.

Japan can bow deeply before Western victims.
Japan can speak gently in Europe.
Japan can kneel at memorials for Australians killed in war.

But when it comes to Asia — China, Korea, Southeast Asia, comfort women, Nanjing, Unit 731, forced labor, massacres, colonial brutality — suddenly the language becomes vague.

“Difficult history.”
“Tragic experiences.”
“Different interpretations.”
“Future peace.”

And politicians like Sanae Takaichi still visit Yasukuni Shrine, still deny or minimize Imperial Japan’s crimes, still posture as if Japan was the misunderstood victim of history.

Japan did not repent equally.
It merely ranked the victims.

Japan internalized the colonial gaze so completely that it sees itself as the “white” country of Asia.

So it lowers its head to the West.
But toward Asian victims, it still acts superior, evasive, and offended when memory refuses to disappear.

That is why Japanese remorse often feels so hollow.

It is not offered equally to the dead.
It is performed selectively for those Japan still recognizes as above itself.

Asia remembers because Asia was the crime scene.

And no amount of polite European banquet language can erase that.

China has banned the export of all dual-use items to Japanese military users and for Japan’s military use. The aim is to contain Japan’s remilitarization and its attempt to possess nuclear weapons, said the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Sanae Takaichi lamented at the G7 that China’s rare earth sanctions are affecting Japan’s economy.

This is the same person who openly threatened China by saying that “a Taiwan emergency is a Japan emergency.”

A defeated fascist state, once disarmed by the anti-fascist order after turning Asia into a slaughterhouse, is now trying to insert itself into China’s internal affairs and present that as “security.”

Then when China responds with economic measures, Japan plays the victim.

Classic.

Japan should be glad that China is not the United States.

If a foreign leader said “a Cuba emergency is our emergency” to Washington, the U.S. would not respond with polite export controls.

It would call it a national security threat, sanction everyone involved, send warships, threaten regime change, and may even kidnap that leader and his family within a week, drag them back to the United States, and try them on drug trafficking charges.

Trump attacked Iran for months under the excuse that Iran must not even have the chance to build a nuclear weapon.

Iran did not say “Cuba is our emergency.”
Iran did not invade the U.S.
Iran did not station forces near Florida.

Yet Washington bombed Tehran, assassinated Khamenei, blockaded Hormuz, and called it security.

Japan, meanwhile, openly links itself to Taiwan, challenges China’s sovereignty, pushes remilitarization, flirts with nuclear ambitions, and then cries when China restricts dual-use exports.

Japan should understand one thing very clearly:

China’s economic measures are restraint.
Perhaps too restrained.

That is exactly why Japan dares to challenge China’s core red lines of sovereignty again and again.

In the end, a defeated militarist power does not get to threaten the victorious country, interfere in its territorial question, and then demand uninterrupted access to strategic materials.

If Japan wants stable relations with China, it should stop pretending dialogue means China staying silent while Tokyo rearms, provokes, and hides behind the G7.

China is indeed not the United States.

That is why Japan is still being warned through economic tools instead of being treated the way Washington treats countries that cross its red lines.

Just caught up the India/China Twitter spat where Indian twitter calling China also has a caste system (it does not).

The weird psychological / logic question one has to ask is - why this group of Indians think it’s an insult to claim China was like them?
