This article examines the aims of Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine. Since the Kremlin has stated several different reasons for its invasion, there have also been several different interpretations over what Putin’s real war objectives are and whether his decision making was rational or not. By revealing inconsistency in Russia’s declared goals and actions as well as analyzing the shift in Putin’s political discourse of nationalism, this article argues that his goal is not to stop NATO’s expansion or “protect the Russians from genocide” in eastern Ukraine, but to oust the Zelensky regime and to put Ukraine under Russia’s control. Thus, even though Russia has changed its strategy to the “liberation” of Donbas so far, it is likely that Russia will prolong the war to reorganize the troops and to seize the entire Ukraine.

This article summarizes the characteristics of the Xi Jinping regime’s policies toward Taiwan and analyzes how they have changed over the course of the reelection of President Tsai Ing-wen in Taiwan, the outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus, and the change of administration in the United States. The first result of the analysis is that Xi Jinping’s policy toward Taiwan has increasingly relied on military power as a means to an end. In addition, its purpose and nature have evolved from warning against Taiwan independence and US-Taiwan cooperation to changing the status quo in the Taiwan Strait to his own advantage. Second, in non-military United Front operations toward Taiwan, Xi Jinping has focused on unilaterally promoting reunification as an established fact without being influenced by trends in Taiwanese politics or public opinion.
此外,其宗旨和性质也从警告“台独”和“美台合作”演变为改变台海现状,为自己谋利。

As the war in Ukraine becomes protracted, there is discourse comparing China and Russia as tyrannical states versus states based on the principles of democracy. However, while China appears to support Russia’s opposition to NATO’s eastward expansion, it abstained from voting on the resolution condemning Russia in the UN General Assembly, and, at the same time, China has shown consideration for Ukraine by saying that it values sovereignty and that Ukraine is no exception. China’s response seems by no means simple. This article analyzes China’s views of the war in Ukraine with a focus on domestic policy options in 2022, a special year of personnel changes and political “special appointments,” while attempting to deal with an increase in Novel Coronavirus cases and reaching the government’s growth target. It then describes the main principles of Chinese diplomacy and its vision of the world. Internationally, China and Russia have maintained a strong relationship even during the war in Ukraine but it is difficult to agree that China and Russia are monolithic. Finally, the article discusses how Japan-China relations have been affected and some of the challenges facing the Indo-Pacific region that have been revealed by the war in Ukraine.

The February 2022 military invasion of Ukraine by President Vladimir Putin, which overturned the very foundations of the world order, was not the result of a recent change in Putin’s thinking or personality; rather it was the inevitable outcome of the Russian policy of imperialism ongoing since the early 2000s. The assertions of former reformist leaders who ingratiated themselves to Putin after 2003, such as Anatoly Chubais, are accurate predictions of Putin’s behavior today. In particular, the Putin administration’s policy shift in June 2006 from an emphasis on “territorial integrity” to an emphasis on the “right to self-determination” is the basis for the subsequent war in Georgia, the annexation of Crimea, and today’s Ukraine problem. The West and Japan did not realize the seriousness of the policy shift in 2006 and continued their policy of appeasement toward Russia, resulting in the current situation. There will be no radical change in Russia after Putin.
