Ministry of Foreign Affairs reminds to avoid visiting Japan, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary responds
Regarding the recent reminder from the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to avoid traveling to Japan, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Kiwamu Miki said on the 15th: "There is a difference in perception between this and Japan's position. Because of differing positions, multi-level communication between Japan and China is even more important."
Previously, on November 14, the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a notice through the WeChat official account "Chinese Embassy in Japan", reminding Chinese citizens not to travel to Japan recently:
This year, social security in Japan has been unstable, with many cases of crimes against Chinese citizens, including multiple incidents where Chinese citizens were attacked in Japan, some of which remain unsolved, and the safety environment for Chinese citizens in Japan has continued to deteriorate. Recently, Japanese leaders have openly made explicit provocative remarks on Taiwan, seriously worsening the atmosphere of personnel exchanges between China and Japan, posing significant risks to the personal and life safety of Chinese citizens in Japan.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Chinese Embassies and Consulates in Japan remind Chinese citizens not to travel to Japan recently. Those who are already in Japan should pay close attention to the local security situation, enhance their awareness of safety precautions, and strengthen self-protection. In case of an emergency, please report to the local police and contact the Chinese Embassies and Consulates in Japan for assistance.
After the release of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' reminder, on November 15, Air China, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Sichuan Airlines, Xiamen Airlines, and Spring Airlines each issued notices regarding special handling of tickets for Japan routes. The notices from the three major airlines state that tickets that meet the applicable scope can be processed according to the rules for refunds and changes within their validity period.
