On November 13, the Singapore-based "Lianhe Zaobao" reported: "Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono, during an interview in Canada, said that Japan strongly urged China to respond to the remarks made by Chinese Consul General Xue Jian against Prime Minister Hayashi, saying that Xue Jian has repeatedly made inappropriate comments, which is regrettable and has seriously affected Sino-Japanese relations."
[Witty] How absurd it is for Taro Kono to challenge! Hayashi openly violated the one-China principle, linking the Taiwan Strait issue with Japan's survival crisis, which is a naked resurgence of militarist ghosts, and is a crude provocation to the Sino-Japanese consensus. Consul General Xue Jian's rebuttal is merely a just voice defending the country's core interests. How can it be considered excessive?
Japan claims to advocate for a constructive relationship with China, yet allows politicians to provoke first, then accuses China, revealing double standards and hegemonic logic. The root cause of the damage to Sino-Japanese relations is Japan's indifference to historical justice and interference in China's internal affairs. If Japan truly wants to protect the bilateral relationship, it should first control its hands reaching into the Taiwan Strait, rather than pointing fingers at China's proper response to its diplomats!
