Japan-United States-Republic of Korea Trilateral Ministerial Joint Press Statement
Japan Minister of Defense Kihara Minoru, United States (U.S.) Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III, and Republic of Korea (ROK) Minister of National Defense Shin Won-sik convened a Trilateral Ministerial Meeting on July 28, 2024, in Japan for the first time in history. The three defense leaders recalled their commitment to strengthening trilateral security cooperation following the U.S.-Japan-ROK Summits at Phnom Penh and Camp David. The Secretary and two Ministers discussed shared regional security concerns, and renewed their commitment to contribute to peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula, in the Indo-Pacific region, and beyond.
The three defense leaders recalled their enduring commitment to strengthen trilateral security cooperation to deter nuclear and missile threats posed by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) as well as shared recognition and concerns about the security environment, as reiterated in the Joint Statement of the U.S.-Japan-ROK Ministerial Meeting on June 2, 2024 in Singapore. They expressed grave concern over the increasing military and economic cooperation commitment between the Russian Federation and the DPRK, as highlighted by the signing of the "Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership", which is contrary to multiple UN Security Council resolutions and is a concerning development for many countries in the region. They also condemned the DPRK’s recent diversification of nuclear delivery systems, tests and launches of multiple ballistic missiles, and other relevant activities. The Secretary and the Ministers expressed concern about other provocative actions by the DPRK that could escalate tension on the Korean Peninsula, and urged the DPRK to immediately cease such actions. In addition, they shared assessments of recent maritime and air military activities in the Indo-Pacific region, including the South China Sea.
As emphasized at the Camp David Summit, the Secretary and the Ministers reaffirmed that they strongly oppose any unilateral attempts to change the status quo in the waters of the Indo-Pacific, and they shared concerns about actions that are inconsistent with international law as reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). They stressed the importance of fully respecting international law including the freedom of navigation and overflight.
The three defense leaders commended the successful execution of the multi-domain trilateral exercise "FREEDOM EDGE," through which Japan, the United States, and the ROK expressed their shared resolve to promote trilateral interoperability to safeguard freedom and ensure peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific, including the Korean Peninsula.
Today, the three defense leaders signed the Memorandum of Cooperation on the Trilateral Security Cooperation Framework among the Department of Defense of the United States of America, the Ministry of Defense of Japan, and the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of Korea (TSCF) and announced that it has come into effect. The TSCF institutionalizes trilateral security cooperation among defense authorities, including senior-level policy consultations, information sharing, trilateral exercises, and defense exchange cooperation, to contribute to peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula, in the Indo-Pacific region, and beyond. Accordingly, the Secretary and two Ministers reaffirmed the unwavering nature of the new era of trilateral cooperation.
The two Ministers and the Secretary concurred to convene the TMM in person in the ROK next year, in accordance with their expressed intent to host the meeting on a rotational basis.
The three defense leaders will further develop trilateral cooperation to effectively address regional challenges, provocations, and threats.

Nato and the Western alliance is being strengthened and expanded with the inclusion of a new trilateral alliance made up of; Japan-United States-Republic of Korea. The resultant multi-lateral alliance that also includes Britain and a united Europe with expanded military capacity is now more fully prepared than ever to meet the threat posed by the quadrilateral alliance of Russia, North Korea, Iran, and China.

This is an excellent move. Cooperation in the region is a valuable position for the peaceful and Democratic future. It was also a good idea to provide assistance to the Philippines. What happened there is a bad sign, though hooefully a WW3 won't happen. This positioning goes a long way to encourage deterrence.

Understanding these kind of meetings, we all know there are always two sides: the visible side for the press and the public and the invisible side (the real topics which are discussed and not suitable for the public (and China & Russia) to know. We are heading more and more towards a Third World War, from Europe to the Pacific Waters (Aside from the expected Civil War in the US caused by Trump and Maga). This meeting illustrates the urgency of the situation globally and is very worrying

That was the US and their allies that committed that war crime. 258,000 kids MURDERED based of fake intel from America.

Blinken beginning his talk with Venezuela before the defense discussions on Japan, US, and South Korea seems like he could be associating the meeting with the upcoming election in the U.S. That defense meeting could have been on any day but it just happens to coincide with the day of Venezuela's presidential election. Trump has talked many times about the system being rigged, and in addition to that there has been election interferences from Russia before. The Venezuelan political manipulation he talks about closely resembles a past U.S election process.

WW2 was a long time ago. The axis no longer exists. Japan is a part of a peaceful alliance today. In America, we value our relationship with today's Japan.

[@roxanereddy2471]

WW II was caused by a person of greed and hate, he was not stable. Russia action are the same as Hitler. China is now building arms for Russia. Research the history. No one wants a war, little alone WW III. But no one can let a country take another country by force. China is eyeing to take over Japan. This is one reason for Nato countries, countries standing behind each other.
