日本跨黨派團體「思考台灣海峽和平與穩定國會議員之會」訪問團今(8)日上午搭乘日航JL097班機抵達台北松山機場,展開3天訪台行程。團長、日本保守黨參議員北村晴男在機場受訪時強調,台灣是日本最重要的朋友,台海和平與穩定不只對台灣重要,對日本更「攸關存立」,「是絕對必須守住的」,日方將以「能做的事都會去做」的決心推動相關工作。

訪問團7名成員橫跨4個政黨,除團長北村晴男外,日本維新會有眾議員西田薰、橫田光弘、三木圭惠及該會事務局長、參議員石平,國民民主黨為參議員山田吉彥,參政黨則是參議員梅村瑞穗。台灣方面到場接機者包括「台灣國」理事長陳峻涵、台灣基進黨主席王興煥等人,並由創作歌手鍾綺代表向訪問團獻花。

北村晴男表示,能來到台灣真的非常高興,「我們認為台灣是日本最重要的朋友」。他指出,台海和平與穩定不只對台灣,對日本而言也「攸關存立」,極為重要,是絕對必須守住的東西,「為此,我們抱著能做的事都會去做的決心,就是來向各位傳達這件事」。他所用的「存立上」一詞,呼應日本安保法制中「存立危機事態」的概念,該概念是日本行使集體自衛權的法定門檻之一。

北村具體點出兩項立法目標指出,美國現有兩部法律,即「台灣關係法」與「台灣旅行法」,他強調,「日本版台灣關係法、日本版台灣旅行法,無論如何都要在日本完成立法」,藉由這樣的作為,日本能與美國攜手,持續向全世界傳達日本與台灣、與台灣人民之間的緊密連結,「我認為這是最重要的事,唯有如此,才是守護台海和平與穩定最關鍵的作為」。

北村最後說,透過這樣的作為,「若有國家企圖破壞這份和平與穩定,就要讓那個國家打消念頭,我認為這正是我們的使命」。

該會於今年6月15日在日本國會內成立,由對台海安全抱持共同危機感的跨黨派議員組成,代表世話人為北村晴男、西田薰與山田吉彥,事務局長由石平擔任,成立時即表明要將研議成果連結至議員立法。北村晴男過去曾公開主張,日本1972年與中國建交、同時與我國斷交是日本外交的重大錯誤,日本應正視台灣的主權地位並推動恢復邦交,並研議制定「日本版台灣關係法」,為台日經貿、安保、防衛及人員交流建立更穩固的制度基礎。

此行為該會成立後首次派團訪台。訪團明(9)日下午2時將出席印太戰略智庫主辦的「台日外交國防論壇」,北村晴男將與外交部長林佳龍就台海安全、台日外交及防衛合作、灰色地帶威脅與民主夥伴協作等議題交換意見,晚間並出席晚宴。
