China has triggered growing tension with many Asia-Pacific nations with its sweeping claims over the South China Sea and its crucial maritime trade routes. It also claims self-governing Taiwan as its territory, to be annexed by force if necessary. China’s military expansion has been criticized for lack of transparency.
Without specifically naming China, Kamikawa said escalating tensions in “a certain region” and cyberattacks by “a certain country” can easily spill over to others in the region and increase their risks.
