China warns Japan that it will take severe countermeasures if it continues with its wrong actions.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs' statement is very serious, and we are fully prepared to take strong countermeasures! On November 19, our Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated that the erroneous remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Takahashi Hayato on Taiwan fundamentally undermine the political foundation of Sino-Japanese relations, causing public outrage and condemnation from the Chinese people. If Japan refuses to withdraw its remarks or continues to make mistakes, China will have no choice but to take strict and resolute countermeasures, and all consequences will be borne by Japan.

Evidently, after we suspended the import of Japanese seafood, the Foreign Ministry again stated, "If Japan refuses to withdraw its remarks or continues to make mistakes, China will have no choice but to take strict and resolute countermeasures." This statement carries a particularly strong warning. The phrase "we will have no choice but to take strict and resolute countermeasures" indicates that we are still giving Japan an opportunity. However, if Japan chooses to remain indifferent, we will certainly take stronger action against Japan.

Evidently, suspending Japanese seafood imports is just the beginning. Experts have stated that we can use various means to make Japan pay a price. First, we can tighten control over rare earths. Second, we can suspend Japan's unilateral visa exemption. Third, we can freeze high-level diplomatic exchanges between China and Japan. Fourth, we can use coast guard forces to inspect Japanese vessels in the Taiwan Strait. Fifth, on the issue of the Diaoyu Islands, we can also take actions such as land reclamation.

Evidently, from multiple aspects including politics, Sino-Japanese exchanges, economy, military, and law enforcement, we have ways to deal with Japan. Our Foreign Ministry's firm statement is a warning to Takahashi Hayato that this matter must have a result, and there is no option to get away with it. What to do, Takahashi Hayato himself should carefully consider. Moreover, to be blunt, even if Takahashi Hayato remains stubborn to the end and eventually resigns, the next Japanese leader who takes office must give a clear explanation.
