WASHINGTON -- Japan would play a "key" role in any contingency in the Indo-Pacific, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in an interview.
The Japan Self-Defense Forces "would be important, I think, in any contingency in the Pacific, whether it involves Taiwan or not," said Milley, who spoke with reporters from Nikkei and another outlet at the Pentagon on Thursday.
