China lodges 'protest' in Japan talks over Taiwan dispute  DW  11/18/2025
""During the consultations, China once again lodged a strong protest with Japan regarding Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's erroneous remarks concerning China," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said. The Japanese prime minister told lawmakers this month that Japan could intervene in the case of a Chinese attack on Taiwan. "Takaichi's fallacies seriously violate international law and the basic norms governing international relations,""
"China's warning against travel to Japan could take a hit on the Japanese tourism sector, with Chinese tourists making up almost a quarter of the total. Japanese movie premieres were also reportedly being delayed by the China Film Administration, reducing potential revenue in a key market. Japan then issued its own warning to citizens in China, pointing to the media coverage of the dispute there."
Masaaki Kanai traveled to Beijing to meet Chinese counterpart Liu Jinsong to resolve a diplomatic dispute triggered by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's comments about Taiwan. China lodged a strong protest, with Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning calling Takaichi's remarks erroneous, saying they violate international law and basic norms and damage the political foundation of China-Japan relations. China reiterated its claim on Taiwan and has not ruled out military action. Beijing also advised its citizens against travelling to Japan, a move that could hurt Japanese tourism and film revenues. Japan warned its citizens in China to take extra precautions amid media coverage of the dispute.
