No one country can resolve every security issue by its own. Taiwan Strait or Taiwan is very near to Japan, next to each other. If tensions rises across the Taiwan Strait, what role would GM SDF play? That's a very hard question.
Admiral Kobayashi, before we begin, we just want to thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to be with here today. We really appreciate it and it's good to have you here with us. It's my pleasure. Thank you for having me. Admiral, Japan has been participating in RIMPAC since 1980. What's the main goal for the JMSEF and the JSKON goal for this year's RIMPAC?
Our purpose is to join the RIMPAC exercise. Firstly, we need to enhance our tactical proficiency among our officers and sailors. And the other one is to strengthen the partnership among the participation nations, including the United States.
you've said we have been joining this exercise for over forty years. I didn't know that this was a long history, but it makes us stronger and more sophisticated, more solid relationship, I believe.
And what kind of training is the JMSCF conducting with the U.S. Navy and other partnered countries doing this year's RINPAC? 像你知道,RIMPAC有座域的演習,從HEDL到Maritime Operation Exercises,包括ASW,Anti-Submarine Warfare,或Anti-Air Warfare,或Special Operations of Samaritan. 所以我們在JS-Congo都很關注於Maritime Operations,包括ASW和IAMD,Integrated Air Missile Defense.
最重要的事是每天我們可以跟友好國家協同,所以這種信任和合作會使我們的關係更加穩定,所以這是第一個重要的事情。另一個事情是包含潛艇的參與,所以透過環太軍演我們可以進行非常接近世界真實情況的演習,所以這非常重要且富有成效。
Why is it important for Japan to keep the seas free and open and how does RIMPAC help Japan support that goal? Okay, RIMPAC exercise is many nations from Indo-Pacific region. 您知道,亞太地區的經濟產出佔世界的60%,並且我們有60%的國家在這個區域,所以在世界的重要區域中,我們有很重要的練習。因為我們可以在這個區域透過合作建立信任,我們的資訊是世界上的資訊,而無一國可以解決所有安全問題,所以近年的演習很重要,我們的合作與互相理解有助於解決該區域的很多安全問題。
加上軍隊的努力增強在東北亞,該做法如何使GMSDF接觸的?嗯,所以我已經開始來,把聯合的演習動作作為日常,所以我會很開心如果是聯合的軍隊。但是,對於我們要很重要的,因為你之前說過,在這區域也許有很多關係可能會緊張,這些問題應該是解決的,但是我們不能憑自己解決這些問題,我們必須要集合。
And as you know, on July 6, China carried a missile test into the Pacific during RIMPAC. And actually on that day we interviewed Captain William Mathis of USS Theodore Roosevelt, and he told us that the U.S. side is aware of the situation and constantly monitoring the situation. So how does the JMSCF interpret that test?
我們在這些行動中保持高度關注。我認為我們的觀眾會想知道,如果臺海局勢緊張,日本海上自衛隊會扮演什麼角色?那是很難的問題,臺灣和臺灣很接近日本,相互鄰近,所以我們都很關注每天發生的事情。我不是很擔心,但我也要注意事情會發生,所以為什麼GMSDF一直在練習,要準備好應對可能發生的事情。
Mandarin is speaking to the audience, but I cannot speak to Mandarin, is that okay? That's okay. Okay, thank you for having me again, and I'm very privileged to take responsibility as a Vice Commander of Combined Task Forces through the RIMPAC 2026. The theme of this exercise is Partners Integrated and Preparedness. This kind of theme, through the gathering together and work together, 我們一起提升我們的應用功能和戰力非常重要。我們的努力也有助於在區域內提供安全和資訊。Admiral Kobayashi, 謝謝您的時間和分享,謝謝。
