Thank you very much for a very critical question.
Peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are very important, not only for the security of Japan but also for stability in the international community as a whole. We've been watching very carefully. Looking back at the G7 Hiroshima leaders' meeting last year, the G7 leaders came up with the importance of the peace and stability of the strait. They issued a statement. They also issued an urge to peaceful resolution if there are any issues based upon all those negotiations and talks.
You also asked the hypothetical question. On question number one, being a diplomat I respectfully avoid answering the hypothetical questions, but I would say that this is a very serious matter. It is only natural for the government to take all possible measures, including the development of a system to respond to any contingency in order to ensure the safety and the prosperity of Japan and its people.
