00:00China and Japan are entering into an increasingly escalating spat over the

00:23Taiwan issue and with both nations refusing to back down there are fears

00:28that the situation could lead to a full-blown war.

00:32The diplomatic spat began earlier in November when the newly instated Japanese Prime Minister

00:38Sanahei Taikichi made remarks about how Japan would respond to a hypothetical Chinese attack

00:45on Taiwan.

00:47On November 7, Taikichi, while speaking in the parliament, said that a Chinese naval blockade

00:54or any other action against Taiwan will prompt a Japanese military response.

00:59This response was not something her predecessors have ever made before, as they have only expressed

01:05concern about the Chinese threat to Taiwan, but never mentioned a response.

01:11The statement immediately raised protests from China, with both its foreign and defense ministries

01:18demanding a retraction of the comments.

01:21China's consul general in Osaka even appeared to make threats to the Japanese PM in a now-deleted

01:28post which read, and I quote,

01:30As Taikichi refused to retract her comments, China summoned the Japanese ambassador and warned

01:45of a crushing defeat if Japan interfered with Taiwan.

01:51The following day, Japan, too, summoned the Chinese ambassador and complained about the

01:56consul's post.

01:58On November 14, China issued a no-travel advisory for Japan, an apparent attempt to target Japan's

02:06tourism sector, which is heavily dependent on Chinese tourists.

02:11China has also warned Chinese students studying in, or planning to study in Japan, about the

02:17recent crimes against Chinese.

02:21China further increased tensions as its coast guard started patrolling disputed areas in the

02:26East China Sea.

02:29Chinese vessels patrolled near a group of uninhabited islands that both countries claimed.

02:34In response, Japan condemned the brief violation of Japanese territorial waters by Chinese ships.

02:43On November 18, in a bid to cool down tensions, diplomats from both sides met in Beijing.

02:50However, the meeting did not appear to ease the tensions and there seemed to be no signs

02:56of the impasse breaking.

02:58China has demanded a retraction of Japanese PM Taikichi's comments, but with the PM outrightly

03:04refusing to do so, fears of a military confrontation in the region are rising.
