Pure propaganda. Seems overkill at this pt. as Article 9 is doomed.

Thanks Japan. Hopefully nothing more than an escort is ever needed.

Protect it from what exactly?  what did they do?  just sail alongside it?  all this scaremongering and propaganda is ridiculous.  and when you see the news they say the threat from NK is "increasing"??  I wonder why?  Why are we suddenly poking L'il Kim with a stick??

Pretty standard practice really for home country warships to escort those of other nations through its waters!

"After the mission, the two MSDF vessels are due to take part in an event in Singapore on May 15."

By crossing the INTERNATIONAL WATERS known as the South China Sea.
