"The balance of military forces between China and Taiwan as a whole is rapidly shifting towards China," the report says, officially approved at a meeting of the country's government. At the same time, the Japanese defense Ministry emphasizes that Taiwan continues to strengthen its own defense capability against the background of Russia's war against Ukraine. China, according to the Japanese military, continues to defiantly increase military activity around Taiwan.

Regarding the PRC, the report, as a year earlier, retained an assessment describing China as the "most serious strategic challenge" for the Japanese side.
