Japan's Defence Minister Shinjiro Koizumi denied accusations of 'new militarism' in a speech at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore. He accused China of rapidly arming and stated that China's military expansion lacks sufficient transparency. Koizumi also stated that Tokyo opposes unilateral changes to the status quo by force or coercion. According to one report, China's Foreign Ministry accused Japan of pursuing remilitarization through expanded spending, loosened exports, missile deployments, and constitutional revision, and warned the international community to stay on high alert against Japanese militarism. Japan has neither nuclear weapons nor strategic bombers, according to one report.
