In a profile at that time, he saw Hatoyama's "inexperienced left-leaning" government as "challenging Japan's postwar political order and its close relationship with the United States". As well, the LDP was "crumbling into disarray" in the wake of Hatoyama's victory. In the profile, Nakasone described the moment "as a national opening on par with the wrenching social and political changes that followed defeat in the [world] war [and] praised the appearance of a strong <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_of_Japan" title="Democratic Party of Japan">second political party</a> as a step toward true democracy".<sup id="cite_ref-NYT01_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NYT01-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> "Being knocked out of power is a good chance to study in the cram school of public opinion", he was quoted as saying of the LDP. He "faulted Mr. Hatoyama for giving Washington the impression that [Hatoyama] valued ties with China more than he did those with the United States. 'Because of the prime minister’s imprudent remarks, the current situation calls for Japan to make efforts to improve things,' he said. The [Japanese] relationship with the United States is different from that with China, he said, because 'it is built on a security alliance, and not just on the alliance, but on the shared values of liberal democracy, and on its shared ideals.'" And relative to another high-profile current source of friction between Japan and the United States, Nakasone said: "Problems like <a href="/wiki/Okinawa_Island" title="Okinawa Island">Okinawa</a>
