Concerns Arise Over Japan's Possible "Strong Landing on Diaoyu Island," Defense Ministry Responds
1月29日下午，国防部举行例行记者会，国防部新闻局副局长、国防部新闻发言人蒋斌大校答记者问。
有记者提问，日本冲绳县石垣市议会通过了一份涉钓鱼岛条例，引发外界担忧日本可能借此强登钓鱼岛开展所谓“登岛调查”。请问国防部对此有何评论？
对此，蒋斌表示，钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿是中国固有领土。中方将继续采取有效措施，坚定维护国家领土主权和海洋权益。
还有记者还对近期日本政府在扩军备武方面动作不断，在研发远程导弹、放宽武器出口等敏感领域释放挑衅信号进行了提问。
蒋斌回应说，日本新政府上台以来黩武扩军动作频频，加速谋求军事松绑，以加强“反击能力”为借口发展进攻性武器，甚至公然鼓噪“拥核论”，严重违背日本根据《开罗宣言》《波茨坦公告》等具有国际法效力的文件规定应履行的战败国义务，威胁亚洲和世界和平稳定，已引起地区国家和国际社会的高度警惕。
蒋斌表示，今年是东京审判开庭80周年。日本右翼势力推动“再军事化”的野心已昭然若揭，中方将同所有爱好和平的国家一道，坚决遏阻军国主义幽灵再现，坚决捍卫战后国际秩序和国际公平正义。
