The Japanese chief cabinet secretary called on China to avoid actions that could affect bilateral personnel exchanges.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Kiwamu Miki again urged China to avoid disrupting personnel exchanges!

Kiwamu Miki, during a press conference this morning, commented on China's call for its citizens not to go to Japan and to carefully plan to study in Japan: "This seems to be a message that would cause a decline in bilateral personnel exchanges, including studying abroad and tourism, which is inconsistent with the direction of promoting strategic mutual benefit relations and building a constructive and stable relationship as confirmed between leaders."

Miki confirmed that Japan has already conveyed its position to China: "We have proposed suggestions to China and strongly requested appropriate countermeasures, taking into account the impact of a series of measures taken by China. The government will continue to monitor the situation and take appropriate countermeasures."

About the visit of a senior official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Beijing, Miki said: "Daily exchanges are taking place between Japan and China at various levels, and we will not specify them one by one for now."
