The United States expect Japan to take on more responsibilities and to be a more qualified global partner of America,and to strengthen the U.S.-Japan alliance in order to counter China’s influence.However, the policy will drive Japan’s political right deviation increasingly clear,which will benefit the United States and the U.S.-Japan alliance in the short term but lead to a worrying effect in the long term.
