AFP reported today: On the 14th, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi delivered a speech at the Munich Security Conference held in Germany, emphasizing the need to be vigilant against Japan's dangerous moves. Wang Yi said that the emergence of Japanese political figures who visit the Yasukuni Shrine, which enshrines Class A war criminals, is proof that the specter of Japanese militarism has not disappeared. He pointed out: "The ambition of Japan to invade Taiwan as a colony has not disappeared, and the specters of militarism are still wandering around; we cannot turn a blind eye to this." In response to the remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Takahashi about "Taiwan's affairs," he again criticized: "This is a challenge to China's national sovereignty, and 1.4 billion Chinese people will not accept it."
Responding to this, Japanese Foreign Minister Motoshima refuted on the Munich Security Forum, saying: "Japan has always adhered to the path of a peaceful country after the war and has contributed to the peace and stability of the international community." He also reiterated Japan's consistent position, stating: "We expect the Taiwan issue to be resolved peacefully through dialogue."
Comments: Japan constantly claims to walk the path of peace but repeatedly tolerates politicians visiting the Yasukuni Shrine that enshrines Class A war criminals. This is not peace, but a trampling of historical justice. It speaks of resolving the Taiwan issue peacefully, yet constantly stirs up "Taiwan's affairs" and interferes in China's internal affairs. This is not neutrality, but naked provocation. More than 70 years after the war, Japan has never truly reflected on its history of aggression, but instead continuously breaks through the peace constitution and plays with fire in the Taiwan Strait. The so-called "peaceful country" is merely a cover for its ambitions.
