Foreign media has noticed! Foreign media stated that facing the incoming Asako Kishida, China did not hold back and directly drew two red lines on the day she took office! On October 22, the Straits Times cited expert opinions stating that the Chinese Foreign Ministry urged the new Japanese government to abide by its political commitments on major issues such as history and Taiwan, and maintain the political foundation of bilateral relations. Beijing's statement clearly set two red lines for the Sino-Japanese relationship, and it is expected that they will monitor her actions closely, with a focus on whether she will again raise the issue of "Taiwan's affairs being Japan's affairs" in her capacity as Prime Minister.
Foreign media stated that if the right-wing Asako Kishida becomes Prime Minister and creates trouble on historical issues and the Taiwan issue, I believe the Chinese government will take a more determined attitude to express this. It is obvious that the observation by foreign media is very reasonable. For politicians like Asako Kishida, we have not sent a letter of congratulations, but instead drawn red lines first, which is certainly a warning to her. If Asako Kishida does not exercise caution on our concerns, there will definitely be serious consequences.
From Japan's perspective, does Japan have reasons to get along well with us? Of course it does. The economic and trade relationship between China and Japan remains close. In the context of the US imposing tariffs on Japan, Japan's economy faces serious challenges, and Japan has the necessity to stabilize its relationship with us, rather than making extreme actions that disrupt this stability. Moreover, in the context of the Sino-US rivalry, if Japan jumps too high and cooperates with the US to contain us, we will certainly target Japan first. Japan must weigh its options carefully.
