Japan has asked the US military to suspend all non-emergency V-22 Osprey flights over its territory after one crashed into the sea in western Japan, killing at least one person onboard and leaving several more missing, authorities said.
The US has said that it is not after conflict with China, yet its actions say otherwise, especially when it comes to military sales to countries in the region.
