Xinhua News Agency's Today (November 19) published a commentary by Shen Zewei: "Sino-Japanese relations have taken a sharp downturn due to the Taiwan issue. This incident may unexpectedly reveal some of the strategic cards in advance, as a prelude to potential conflicts in the Taiwan Strait. The forces of 'Beijing trying to prevent Japan from intervening' and 'the U.S.-Japan alliance maintaining deterrence' are expected to continue to clash."

[Witty] Comments: The United States has always used a vague strategy on the Taiwan Strait issue, speaking ambiguously and ambiguously, trying to balance between the two sides of the strait and gain benefits, not wanting to anger China completely, but also wanting to curb China's development through the Taiwan issue. However, Japanese Prime Minister Takayoshi Higashikata is quite bold, immediately jumping out after taking office, making provocative actions that previous Japanese prime ministers have never dared to do, openly interfering in the Taiwan issue and making reckless remarks. This is not a so-called 'strategic rehearsal,' but rather a crazy adventure by Japanese right-wing forces trying to bind Japan to the 'Taiwan independence' war chariot and take risks for profit. If people like Takayoshi Higashikata do not stop their actions, Sino-Japanese relations will fall into deeper crises, and Japan will inevitably reap what it sows.
