Japan wants 'constructive and stable' ties with China and calls on Beijing to behave 'responsibly', the country's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said in an interview Thursday.
"We're facing the most challenging, complex security environment since the war and what must be prioritized, I believe, is proactive diplomacy with China," Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said in an interview Thursday. FILE PHOTO
"We're facing the most challenging, complex security environment since the war and what must be prioritized, I believe, is proactive diplomacy with China," Kishida said in an interview with foreign media including AFP. The statement prompted furious reaction from Beijing, which accused the group of having "maliciously slandered and smeared" China.
China considers Taiwan its territory and has vowed to bring the island under its control one day. It also claims the entire Taiwan Strait as its territorial waters.Kishida said maintaining "peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait" was important not only for Japan but for "the stability of the international community", though he declined to be drawn on how Japan might respond to an invasion.
And he said China needed to do more to ensure a "transparent, predictable and fair business environment".
