The UK Prime Minister, after finishing his visit to China, urgently traveled to Japan for talks with the Japanese Prime Minister.

Foreign media reported today that UK Prime Minister Starmer, after concluding his visit to China, arrived in Japan for a working visit. During the visit, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takeda will hold talks with Prime Minister Starmer on the night of January 31st in Japan time, followed by a working dinner.

Comments: After finishing his visit to China, Starmer immediately went to Japan to meet with Sanae Takeda. Behind this is a threefold practical consideration — relying on China to solve the economic recovery problem, forming an alliance with Japan to supplement the Indo-Pacific strategic layout, and hedging against the uncertainty of US policies under Trump, thus achieving a dual benefit of interests and positioning through a tight schedule. The Chinese Foreign Ministry responded: Regarding the relationship between the UK and Japan, we have no comment. We hope that countries should develop relations in a way that benefits regional peace and stability.
