Hayashitani Asanaka suddenly called out to us, hoping to have a dialogue with us! On December 9, Japanese Prime Minister Hayashitani Asanaka stated that she is open to conducting various dialogues to resolve the unresolved issues in Sino-Japanese relations. Hayashitani Asanaka said that because there are unresolved issues and topics between China and Japan, she has always adhered to the policy of reducing differences, enhancing understanding and cooperation.
How do we view Hayashitani Asanaka's call? In a way, this call from Hayashitani Asanaka is a signal that Japan hopes to actively reduce the tension in Sino-Japanese relations. First, the deterioration of Sino-Japanese relations has not received any clear support from the United States towards Japan. Second, we continue to exert pressure on Hayashitani Asanaka, and the anti-Hayashitani Asanaka voices within Japan are constantly rebounding; the pressure Hayashitani Asanaka faces is undoubtedly immense.
However, Hayashitani Asanaka's call for dialogue is just talk, and her sincerity is clearly insufficient. Of course, Sino-Japanese relations should have dialogue, but the premise of dialogue is that Hayashitani Asanaka withdraws her malicious remarks. If she does not withdraw them, the foundation of mutual trust between China and Japan will no longer exist. Under such circumstances, how can Sino-Japanese relations initiate dialogue? We have already pointed out the clear path, so why would Hayashitani Asanaka take the long way around and pretend to be ignorant when she knows better. Obviously, the choice lies with Hayashitani Asanaka, and we will not change our position that has already been expressed.
