Japan Minister Calls for a U.S.-Backed “New World Order” to Counter Rise of Authoritarian Regimes
Japan’s trade and industry minister said on Thursday (Jan. 5) post-Cold War free trade and economic inter-dependence had bolstered authoritarian regimes and the United States and like-minded democracies should counter them with a “new world order.”
“Authoritarian countries have amassed tremendous power, both economically and militarily,” Japan’s Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yasutoshi Nishimura said in a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington.
“We must rebuild a world order based on the fundamental values of freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law,” he added.
