India and Japan increase military spending, ‘driven byChina tension’

印日增加军费，声称是由“来自中国的压力”所致

Indiamoves into world’s top five spenders while Japan boosts its military outlay forsixth straight year, as report cites strains with neighbours

印度的军费开支排进了全球第五，而日本则连续第六年增加军费。报道声称是由于邻国的压力所致。

 

Tensions with China have pushed Asian nationsincluding India and Japan to boost military spending, according to a globalarms spending report.

根据全球军火支出报告显示，由于与中国的紧张关系，导致一些亚洲国家包括印度、日本不断加码其军费开销。

india’s defencespending rose by 5.5 per cent to US$63.9 billion in 2017, overtaking that ofFrance as it became one of the world’s top five military spenders, the StockholmInternational Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) said in a report released onWednesday.

斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究院周三在一份报告中指出：2017年，印度的军费支出增长了5.5%，达到了639亿美元，一举超过法国，成为世界第五大军费开支国。

The United States,China, Saudi Arabia and Russia were the leading four last year in militaryspending.

美国、中国、沙特与俄罗斯是军费开支的前四名。

“The Indian governmentplans to expand, modernise and enhance the operational capability of its armedforces, motivated at least partially by tensions with China and Pakistan,” thereport read.

“印度政府还计划扩大、现代化以及加强其武装部队的作战能力，而印度这种动机，至少部分与中国和巴基斯坦的紧张局势有关”。

Siemon Wezeman, asenior researcher for the SIPRI, said: “Tensions between China and many of itsneighbours continue to drive the growth in military spending in Asia.”
The list of the world’sbiggest military spenders has remained largely consistent in recent years,dominated by the US and China, which spent US$610 billion and US$228 billionlast year respectively, according to the SIPRI.

斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究院高级研究员Siemon Wezeman表示：“中国与许多邻国之间的紧张关系，持续不断地推动着亚洲军费的增长”
研究显示，近年来，世界上前几大的军费开支名单基本保持稳定，由中美两国主宰，美国去年的军费开支达到6100亿美元，而中国的军费开支则达到了2280亿美元

China’s militaryspending was 3.6 times that of India, which was the region’s second-largestspender.

中国的军费开支是印度的3.6倍，而后者是区域内第二大军费开支国。

As it goes ahead with amodernisation drive for the People’s Liberation Army, China has pledged toraise its military spending by 8.1 per cent this year, after its 2017 totalshowed an increase of 5.6 per cent compared with 2016.

随着PLA现代化进程的推进，中国表示今年会将军费开支提升8.1％，而其2017年军费总额比2016年增加了5.6％。

That increase was its slowest since 2010, but China’s share of worldwide military expenditure rose to 13 per cent in 2017 from 5.8 per cent in 2008, according to the institute.

根据斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究院的研究显示，那是自2010年来，军费增长最慢的一年，但中国占全球军费的比例已经从2008年的5.8％上升到2017年的13％。



China and India wereengaged in a 72-day military stand-off at their shared Doklam border in theHimalayan region last year, the closest the two countries have come to militaryconfrontation in half a century.

去年，中印在喜马拉雅地区的共同边界---洞朗地区，进行了72天的军事对峙。这是中印近半个世纪以来最为接近的军事对抗。

Despite the thawing ofSino-India tensions following meetings between Chinese President Xi Jinping andIndian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in September and last weekend in China,satellite images released by US geopolitical intelligence company Stratfor inJanuary revealed that both countries have been actively bolstering theirmilitary presence near the border.

尽管中印两国领导人9月以及上周末在中国举行会晤后，中印紧张局势得以缓解，但据美国地缘政治情报公司斯特拉福一月份发布的卫星图像显示，两国都在积极支援边界附近的军事存在。

Shashank Joshi, asenior research fellow at the London-based Royal United Services Institute,said India faced a big challenge in modernising its forces.

伦敦皇家联合服务研究所高级研究员ShashankJoshi这样表示，印度在实现其部队现代化方面面临着巨大挑战。

“Clearly, India’s relations with both Pakistan and China have deteriorated over the past decade, and particularly since 2016 or so. This has not had a dramatic impact on India’s level of spending, but it has led to specific investments,” he said.

其补充道：“很显然，过去十年间，印度与巴基斯坦和中国的关系持续恶化，特别是从2016年左右开始。但印度此举并没有其国防开支产生戏剧性的影响，不过也表明其已经在进行专项投资了”

“One of the mostimportant is a new mountain strike corps – India’s first offensive corpsdirected at China rather than Pakistan – based in the east. This is being builtup slowly, but surely. Other investments are being made into new aircraftcarriers and combat aircraft.”

其中最重要的一项之一，那就是新的山地打击部队--印度第一支面向中国而不是巴基斯坦的进攻部队，该部队位于东部地区。建设比较缓慢，不过可以确定的是，印度还进行了其他的投资，如新航母和作战飞机

Adam Ni, a researcheron China’s foreign and security policy at the Australian National University,said India’s military spending increase was not big enough for it to catch upwith China.

澳大利亚国立大学中国外交与安全政策研究员Adam Ni表示，印度军费开支的增长还不够多，不足以赶上中国。

He added that China’sdefence spending was a “massive underestimate” of what is actually spent ondefence, especially on research and development.

其补充道，中国的国防开支实际上被严重低估了，特别是在（武器）研发领域。

“India is doing what itcan to improve its military to affect Beijing’s strategic calculus in favour ofIndia. That is, to be able to impose more cost on Beijing in case ofcompetition or conflict,” he said.

其还补充道，“印度正在尽其所能改善其军事力量，用以影响北京对于印度的战略演算。也就是说，在发生争端或冲突的情况下，可导致北京方面增加行动成本”

Worldwide militaryspending rose marginally last year to US$1.73 trillion, or roughly 2.2 per centof global gross domestic product, the SIPRI said.

斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究院声称，去年全球军费开支略微上升，达到1.73万亿美元，大约占到全球GDP的2.2%

Although the reportsaid Japan remained in eighth place for military spending, its defence outlaysfor the year starting April 1 were due to rise for a sixth straight year, goingup by 1.3 per cent to 5.19 trillion yen (US$45.76 billion), according to abudget breakdown published by its government last month.

根据日本政府上个月公布的预算明细显示，虽然日本的军费开支仍居全球第八位，但至今年4月1日为止，日本的国防开支已连续第六年上涨，增长1.3％至5.19万亿日元（457.6亿美元）。

Japan’s increases indefence spending represent a change in policy since the 2012 cut to the defencebudget.
“Perceived threats fromChina and North Korea remain the most important factors in Japan’s securitystrategy,” the report said.

日本自2012年削减国防预算以来，其国防开支一直在增长，这也表明其政策的变迁。
该报告还描述道，“来自中国和朝鲜的威胁，仍然是日本安全战略中最重要的因素”

No, wrong Title, driven by US wanting to sellarms

My general feeling before leaving last summerwas that the rising nationalism and stamping out of dissent were symptoms of anation drifting inexorably towards war. It would be a total disaster for China,a huge humiliation militarily and probably lead to a double digit recessionlasting several years, but fanatacism and lack of honest communication havecaused disaster in China before, not that long ago. It really isn'tunimaginable.

我去年夏天离开离开中国的时有一种感觉，不断上升的民族主义以及不同寻常的冲突，是一个国家慢慢走向战争的征兆，这对中国来说这将是一场彻底的灾难，一次军事上的巨大的耻辱，可能导致持续数年高达两位数的衰退。狂热、缺乏诚信的沟通之前就曾在中国造成过灾难，而且并不久远，所以这并非不可想象。

China increases its military spending becauseAmerica is at its door step, armed to the teeth. Any country without potentdefense, will be like Iraq and Libya.

中国增加军费，那是因为美国都找上门来了，中国需要武装到牙齿。任何一个没有强大防御力量的国家，都会像伊拉克和利比亚一样。

India is spending Billions for military tokeep up with China but Japan is spending Billions in military to revive itsrightist military ambition for a 2nd round of East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere.

印度花费数十亿美元用于军事领域是为了跟上中国步伐，但日本花费数十亿美元用于军事上，是为了恢复其右翼军事野心，用以发起第二轮东亚共荣圈战争。

No, India and Japan spend billions on weaponsare because of the USA using China as an excuse to enrich itself at the expenseof India and Japan. Let's be clear on that.

不对，印度和日本花费数十亿美元购买武器，是因为美国利用中国为借口，然后以牺牲印度和日本为代价来达到自己的目的。这一点我们需要明白。

India has every right toincrease its military spending. Although India still has extra 300 million inpoverty, but who cares.
Japan has no right to increase its military spending for offensive purposes. Japanese‘Helicopter’ aircraft carriers is armed with offensive weapons is a big No No,a clear violation of international laws. But hey, international laws is a jokeanyway. International laws did not hang war criminal Emperor Hirohito.
All Asian countries can not stop China to return its rightful place-the MiddleKingdom.
Had the tiny Asians learned from their bitterness of western colonialism andJapanese imperialism past yet?
Hahahahaha - by 2049, China will be much more powerful compare to the US, it istime for all asian countries to treat China with respect, or else facing theconsequences 30 years from now.

印度有权增加军费开支，虽然印度还有3亿人口处于贫困之中，但谁会在乎这个呢？
而日本无权以防御目的增加其军费开支。日本的直升机航母装备有攻击性武器，这太过分了，已经违反了国际法。但老兄，国际法根本就是个笑话好吧。国际法并没有吊死裕仁天皇这个战犯。
任何亚洲国家都不能阻止中国回到其应有的位置上---中央王国。
弱小的亚洲人，还没有从西方殖民主义和日本帝国主义痛苦中学到东西吗？
哈哈哈哈，到2049年，中国会比美国强大的多，现在是所有亚洲国家尊重中国的时候了，否则30年后后果自负。

二战以后，法国人决定继续殖民越南，让越南人民再当100年的奴隶，但他们失败了，那时候国际法在哪里？
莫迪出口大米，用来获得更大的核弹，国际法就是个笑话，LOL。
哎哟喂，国际法还说了，不允许朝鲜和伊朗测试核武器，但却允许印度测试核武器！LOL
国际法真是搞笑！
国际法又说了，中国的军费开支太高了，但日本建造直升机航母却毛事没有，LOL，F35可是攻击性武器呢。
国际法还允许日本重新武装到牙齿。
哈哈哈

The Indian-China border dispute might bedeliberately planted by the imperialist Britain. By stealing land from China toexpand its colonial holding in South Asia, the British probably knew full wellthat once the colony became independent, India would and did inherit the extendedboundary (McMahon Line) as its Line of Actual Control (LAC). For its part,China will do "whatever it takes" to regain the stolen territory. Sothere you have it, China-India tensions will likely continue because neitherneither side is able or willing to compromise for domestic political reasons.

印中边界争端可能是英国帝国主义故意炮制的。通过从中国窃取土地，以扩大其在南亚殖民地控制权，英国人可能完全清楚，一旦殖民地独立后，印度就会继承被延伸的边界线（麦克马洪线），并将这条边界线作为实际控制线。而对中国来说，她将不计任何代价重新夺回被窃取领土。所以你们明白了么，中印关系大概还会继续紧张下去，因为双方都由于国内的政治原因不会相互妥协。

Why is it this stupid author brings out thissubject matter with the topic 'China tension' as if tension was not enoughalready. India and Japan increased military spending is old news.
'India’s defence spending rose by 5.5 per cent to US$63.9 billion in 2017,overtaking that of France as it became one of the world’s top five militaryspenders, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) said ina report released on Wednesday.'
Miss Lo, you're 5 months late reporting this story.

为什么这个笨蛋的作者把“中国压力”这个话题带了出来，好像局势还不够紧张似的。印度和日本增加军费开支已经不是啥新鲜事了。
“斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究院周三在一份报告中指出：2017年，印度的军费支出增长了5.5%，达到了639亿美元，一举超过法国，成为世界第五大军费开支国”

Take a step back, what they spend on theirbudget is hardly anybody's business. In fact I encourage the Chinese to spendmore on military research in line with the threat coming from the Americans -btw spin offs from military tech are one of the sources of innovation. Surelythe Chinese do not want to behave like the Americans who are criticising thosespending more on military . They have every right to protect their own borderslike everyone else. Well ...... an eye for an eye and nobody's left with anyeyes

退一步讲，他们在军费预算上花费多少钱，关别人什么事？实际上我倒是鼓励中国人在军事研究上多花些钱，以应对美国的威胁。顺便说一句，从军工领域脱离出来的技术也是创新的源泉之一。当然了，中国不会像美国那样，对别国在军事上的花费指手画脚。就像其他国家一样，中国完全有权利保护自己的边界不受侵犯。好吧。。。以眼还眼，谁也别装逼。

Peoples Republic of China shares it'sgeographical boundaries with number of countries India being one. Ever sinceOctober Revolution of China in 1949, China has been adopting confrontationpolicy towards India. China incursion into India from Arunachal Pradesh toLadakh area has been causing a considerable strain on military spending likemore deployment of soldiers, purchasing latest military equipment etc.
The un-ending border dispute and recent standoff at Doklam , Chinese presenceon tri-junction of India Nepal and China coupled with its open declaration ofsupport to Pakistan on Kashmir (interference if necessary) etc reasoned Indiato consider PRC as potential adversary not Pakistan.
India is closely associated with the US due to South China Sea dispute, a issueof freedom of navigation, One Road and One Belt, and Maritime Policy perused byChina by encircling India forcing the same to spend huge money on military inthe interest of Indian nation, regional security and not for aggrandizement.

中国与许多国家接壤，印度是其中之一。新中国自1949年10月成立以来，就一直采取与印度对抗的政策。中国从阿鲁纳恰尔邦入侵印度，到了拉达卡地区，导致印度的军事开支有了很大的压力，因为我们需要部署更多的士兵，购买更多先进的军事装备等。
无休止的边界纠纷以及最近的洞朗对峙僵局，加上中国在印度、尼泊尔和中国三国交界处的军事存在，再加上中国在克什米尔问题上公开支持巴基斯坦的声明（必要时进行干涉）等等，自然而然的使印度将中国视为一个潜在对手，而非巴基斯坦。

Don't forget Indian attackon China in 1962. Remember that these Indians do the bidding of their Westernmasters. Yes the same Westerners that come to exploit people of poor countriesand violate them. Do NOT even let your guard down for a second when dealingwith such people.
Don't forget Nanjing (orNanking) massacre and how the Japanese killed your citizens, chopping theirheads off with pool of blood. How they violated your women and those ofneighboring countries. Don't forget how the Japanese used biological and chemicalwarfare and did not leave even children.
Don't forget the Westernersand what they did: In the 18th century, Britain had a huge trade deficit withQing dynasty China and so, in 1773, the company created a British monopoly onopium buying in Bengal, India, by prohibiting the licensing of opium farmersand private cultivation. And sold it to your citizens to turn them into drugaddicts and lower your development potential. And when you try to shut it downto protect your citizen's health these Britishers started a war with you calledthe Opium war. Be very careful when dealing with white-devils the Westernersare criminally intelligent and are great at doing evil wherever they go.

别忘了，是印度在1962年袭击了中国，印度转而向它的西方粑粑求助。是的，就是那些以前剥削这个国家人们、侵犯他们的西方国家。与这种人打交道时，一定不要放松警惕啊！
不要忘记南京大屠杀中日本人是如何杀掉中国人民的，在血泊中砍断他们的头；不要忘记他们是如何侵犯你们以及你们邻国的妇女的，不要忘记日本人是如何对你们使用生化武器的，甚至连小孩子都不放过。
不要忘了西方人以往的所作所为。18世纪的时候，英国对清政府有巨大的贸易逆差，在1773年的时候，这个英国公司，通过禁止向农民发放许可证而杜绝了私人鸦片种植，从而在印度孟加拉邦垄断了鸦片交易。然后将卖给你的人民，让他们变成瘾君子，降低你的发展潜力。而当你们试图禁止鸦片、保护公民之时，这些英国人发动了鸦片战争。与白魔鬼打交道的时候要万分小心才对，西方人在犯罪方面非常有天分，无论他们到达哪里，都十分擅长作恶
