US Policy toward Japan Is for Dominationism
Pyongyang, May 9 (KCNA) -- The United States in 2009 warned Japan under then Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama about its wavering policies on bilateral ties, the New York Times reported Wednesday, quoting U.S. cables posted on the whistleblower website WikiLeaks.

The U.S. government under President Barack Obama fretted about Hatoyama's positions different from the former governments and the contentious plan to relocate a U.S. Marine Corps base in Okinawa, the report said.

Kurt Campbell, U.S. assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, complained in October 2009 that Hatoyama told in Beijing that Japan depended on the United States too much.

Such remarks "would create a crisis in U.S.-Japan relations," Campbell was quoted as telling Akihisa Nagashima, parliamentary defense secretary of Japan.

A cable dated Dec. 10, 2009, also showed that U.S. Ambassador to Japan John Roos told then Japanese Land Minister Maehara that the U.S. had a "problem" with Hatoyama telling Obama to trust him over the relocation of the Futenma Air Station but not following through, the paper said.

Such warning and complaint of the U.S. are revelation of the scheme to put under its control and use Japan for the realization of the dominationist policy to "stage a comeback to Asia."
