In an interview, Ryoko Sakurai, a representative of Japan's conservative press, slammed Kishida's second cabinet reshuffle as "is it possible to form a cabinet with such a lack of crisis awareness?" Sakurai Ryoko has also publicly advocated that the leader of the Taiwan authorities will attend the state funeral of former Prime Minister Abe on September 27. On August 14, according to several media reports such as Japan's "Mainichi Sports", Ryoko Sakurai, a well-known Japanese journalist who has always been known for her conservative and right-leaning, was not only dismissive when asked about Kishida's second cabinet reshuffle when asked about fuji TV's "Sunday Report THE PRIME" program on the same day, but also directly slammed - "Hum! Is this the cabinet?" Because the Prime Minister said that you would form a cabinet on the 5th, I wondered if it would be a cabinet for national defense. But after the formation of the cabinet, I was very disappointed. Although it can be said to be a balanced cabinet that takes into account the interests of various factions, it completely lacks national defense awareness and crisis awareness. At a time when it is necessary to strengthen the defense force, there is such a lack of sense of crisis in the formation of the cabinet, which I think Ishida's judgment is very strange this time. Ryoko Sakurai blamed Prime Minister Kishida for lacking defense and crisis awareness – Prime Minister Kishida announced a cabinet change on the 5th of this month, but on the 4th of the previous day, The Missile Launched by China fell into Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Sakurai Ryoko also speculated about Kishida's use of Abe's Koichi Hagida as chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party' polling party: "I think this is a kind of preparation to curb the conservative rebellion." ”
As a close friend of former Prime Minister Abe and a strong supporter of Abe's press, Sakurai Yoshiko not only fired at Prime Minister Kishida's cabinet formation, but also repeatedly touched on the Taiwan issue, which is China's core interest and involves the feelings of 1.4 billion people. On the 24th of last month, the Friends of Lee Teng-hui Association of Japan held a meeting in Tokyo entitled "50 Years of Taiwan-Japan Relations -- What Has Been Lost?" At the seminar on the theme of "What to Get", Sanae Takashi and Ryoko Sakurai, then chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party and Government, participated in the seminar. Ryoko Sakurai, who took the stage to speak at the sub-section discussion, said that if the leader of the Taiwan authorities can go to Japan to attend the state funeral of former Prime Minister Abe, it will be an opportunity to send a message to the international community that Japan is an ally of Taiwan, and it will also be a good opportunity for the international community to understand Taiwan's status. Takashi Sanae, who was invited to deliver a keynote speech, stressed in her speech that "without former Prime Minister Abe, there would be no current Japan-Taiwan relations." Takashi Sanae spoke highly of Abe's advocacy of "Taiwan has something = Japan has a problem", saying that it will further promote Japan to strengthen relations with Taiwan. Sakurai Ryoko has also expressed her indignation and regret for the death of former Prime Minister Abe after being shot, and it can also be seen that she and Abe have a sympathy for each other - "Former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was assassinated." Assassin, why are you killing? The guards at the scene, why didn't they stop the first shooting? Why would the other party be shot a second time? Why? Why? The anger at the terrorist attack and the shock of losing former Prime Minister Abe made my chest burst with lava, and no matter how much I pounded my chest, I couldn't get it back. There is no doubt that Sakurai Ryoko belongs to the hardline conservative faction that represents Japan with a combination of extreme nationalist labels and ultra-conservative overtones.
