‘Leave Immediately’: Japan Confronts China Over Senkaku Ship Passage | APT - video Dailymotion

APT

Japan condemned China on Monday after Chinese Coast Guard vessels sailed through the waters surrounding the Japan-administered Senkaku Islands, calling the move “unacceptable” and a violation of international law. Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara said Tokyo lodged a strong diplomatic protest and demanded the ships leave immediately. The intrusion comes amid heightened tensions following Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s recent remarks suggesting Japan could respond militarily to a hypothetical Chinese attack on Taiwan — comments that infuriated Beijing. The diplomatic rift widened further as China issued a travel warning for Japan, which Tokyo said was “incompatible” with efforts to build a stable bilateral relationship. Japanese officials say they are monitoring the situation closely while urging China to take corrective steps. #japan #china #xijinping #apt
