The “west” is clearly not the leaders of the “free” world anymore. What’s in it for Japan to stick with them? What if China / Russia offered japan’s sovereignty so long as they kicked out the west’s control over them?

China and Russia both currently have territorial desputes with Japan.

Chinese hate the Japanese for past war crimes.

so, that wouldn't go so well for the Japanese.

Japan wants American military around, and pays 75% off the cost to have them there. from the Japanese point of view, that's a discounted economic boost to the areas that have bases as well.

so, I don't see it happening.
