The militarization of the Trilateral Commission members (Europe, North America, Japan) is complete, Japan now a member of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (even though Japan is in the Pacific).
The official announcement will be made in Tokyo on 15 April 2013. NATO’s Secretary General, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, will meet with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to officially sign and accept Japan’s political declaration of co-operation with NATO.
It’s expected that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will state that the possibility of a major war in Asia, soon, is the excuse for Japan joining with NATO. (Japan has been a NATO ‘partner’ since the 1990s)
This means that not only could Japan take a more active role in NATO activity around the world, but will legally allow NATO to operate in Asia/Pacific in the name of defending the new member Japan. (Russia is now literally surrounded)
This follows a meeting between Japanese officials and U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry, in which Japan agreed to help the U.S. and China “…take concrete steps to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.”
Back in January, it was reported that Japan wanted a stronger commitment from NATO, in order to back up Japan against China.
