China Defence Ministry: Japan has 'continuously broken' its commitment to pacifism
July 02, 2025The Indian Defence Ministry has received clearance from the Centre to begin negotiations with Mazagaon Dockyards Limited (MDL) for the construction of six submarines under 'Project 75 India'. This project, which involves German ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems as a partner, has been in the works since January but faced delays [1].
The Defence Ministry and MDL are expected to commence negotiations by the end of this month, with a target to conclude the deal within the next six months. The goal is to develop indigenous capabilities for designing and manufacturing conventional submarines within India. This initiative comes amidst the rapid modernization of the Chinese Navy, prompting India to accelerate its submarine-building process [1].
Meanwhile, the Chinese Defence Ministry has accused Japan of 'continuously breaking' its commitment to pacifism. This accusation follows a series of recent moves by Japan, including increased military spending and the deployment of more advanced weaponry. The Chinese government has expressed concern over what it perceives as a shift in Japan's defense policy, which has traditionally been constrained by its pacifist constitution [2].
These developments highlight the strategic importance of submarine technology in maintaining naval supremacy and the geopolitical tensions that surround it. The Indian Navy is expected to phase out around 10 of its submarines in the next decade, necessitating timely replacements to maintain its operational readiness.
