日本2025年的国防开支飙升到GDP的2%, 引发了对债务、通货膨胀和社会福利削减的恐惧。
Japan's 2025 defense spending surge to 2% of GDP sparks fears over debt, inflation, and cuts to social welfare.
日本计划到2025年将国防开支提高到11万亿日元——接近国内生产总值的2%——包括1.1万亿日元的补充预算,这引起了人们对日本经济和社会影响的关切。
Japan's plan to boost defense spending to 11 trillion yen—nearly 2% of GDP—by 2025, including a 1.1 trillion yen supplementary budget, has sparked concerns over its economic and social impact.
批评者警告说,使用补充预算用于常规军事开支会破坏财政纪律,减少议会监督,并有可能增加债务、通货膨胀和日元贬值。
Critics warn that using supplementary budgets for routine military spending undermines fiscal discipline, reduces parliamentary oversight, and risks higher debt, inflation, and a weaker yen.
此举被视为将军事目标置于社会福利之上,同时提议增加老年医疗费用,加剧了公众对社会保障缩减的担忧。
The move, seen as prioritizing military goals over social welfare, coincides with proposed increases in elderly medical costs, fueling public anxiety about shrinking social security.
经济学家告诫说,通过债券为积累资金提供资金可能会给公共财政造成压力,伤害普通公民。
Economists caution that financing the buildup through bonds could strain public finances and harm ordinary citizens.
