Beware of the treacherous hands of your so called "allies", @T-123456 . I know the blood and soul of Turco-Mongol brothers are brutal against false instigators from outside. Your Turco-Mongol ancestors would not expect you to shame them by relying too much on such kind of impromptu "allies."...
It is in context to Atalanta, yes, @MarkusS. It is in context also to CTF -150.
I also hope our great German brothers awaken from their slumber. @MarkusS @Henry ME 95 @Bundeswehr .....
Rising Sun and Deutsche Eagle...must be together, too. :)
We will not endanger our sovereign growth and progression to support American interventionism. Japan will pursue omnidirectionality, with fraternal embrace of China, our most natural and most closest fraternal brothers.
The Chinese are our partners. Their foreign policy initiatives are almost...
Even the most deadly Nihonto is not willfully placed outside where it is exposed to the elements. The Nihonto is ensheathed in the 拵え (koshirae) where it is protected. It is only unsheathed when combat or battle is imminent.
Its the duality of a warrior, my Turkish friend. A Nihonto should be sharp enough to cut through the hulking flesh and bone of the opponent, yet delicate enough to be unsheathed during the falling of cherry blossoms....
LOL, don't be too quick to write anything out of the picture. Do remember that China has been instrumental in creation of the Addis Ababa - Djibouti Railway:

Peter, do you really doubt China's ability to build bases? I assure you, i expect to see this new base to be world class.
I suppose we all must be ready to see the arrival of China's Marine Corp here soon. I want to see our Rikusentai boys training with Chinese Marines. Imagine it, Peter...
THAT is exactly what Japan is doing. In fact Djibouti is critical for our naval spearhead force, as our Navy is the finest and most celebrated arm of our military. Any developments in our Naval-traditions with other nations is testimony to Japan's rise from the ashes of post-war pacifism. And...
Thanks for the clarification, i do appreciate it.
As for China's ascendancy and success in finalizing this partnership with Djibouti, this is impressive and a totally new paradigm shift for East Asia. We Japanese just got into Djibouti in 2010, and 6 years later, the Chinese are soon to start...
If you only knew the true feelings of many officers of the JMSDF, my Turkish friend. But if you prefer to believe that Japanese military personnel all 'glorify' the Americans, LOL, then, please, be my guest.
Ignorance is bliss, i suppose.
Her rank is 2等海佐 (Commander). She's in command of a destroyer squadron, probably one of the newer Akizuki's that was inducted recently. As for family background, perhaps there is some influence of her grandfather's name.
Are there any female commanders in the PLAN, my friend? :)
Now, let's all get back to reality. Looks like the future President of the Philippines is symbolically making rounds. ;)

I had thought the US would leave its naval base in Djibouti. I didn't know it was transferring to another location. So , the news is news to me. Thanks for the update.
