尖閣諸島：中国「核心的利益」と位置付け　チベットと同列 - 毎日ｊｐ(毎日新聞)
２日付の香港紙サウスチャイナ・モーニング・ポストは中国外交筋の話として、中国政府が今年に入り、沖縄県・尖閣諸島の領有権を台湾やチベット、新疆ウイグル両自治区と同列の「核心的利益」に位置付けたと報じた。尖閣諸島付近での漁船衝突事件をめぐって中国側が見せた一連の強硬な態度の背景には、この政策変更があるとの専門家の見方を伝えている。同紙によると、中国指導部は昨年後半、領土などに関する問題を「国家の利益」と「国家の核心的利益」に分類することを決定。今年に入り、南シナ海や尖閣諸島を含む東シナ海の問題を、台湾などと並んで一切の妥協を拒む「核心的利益」に分類した。東南アジア各国と領有権問題を抱える南シナ海については、中国が米国側に３月、核心的利益に属すると表明したことが明らかになっている。（共同）

The Japan Syndrome - By Ethan Devine | Foreign Policy

In 1988, Japan's foreign exchange reserves stood at 5 percent of Japanese GDP and 0.7 percent of global GDP, whereas China's are now half of Chinese GDP and a full 5 percent of global GDP. Reserves of this magnitude have the potential to destabilize the Chinese and global economies.
