Sep 27, 2024, 07:11 AM
Japan's decision to sail a Maritime Self-Defense Force (MSDF) vessel through the Taiwan Strait has drawn a strong reaction from China. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's administration decided to take this step amidst Beijing's recent provocations, marking a shift from Japan's previous risk-averse approach. China's Foreign Ministry, with spokesperson Lin Jian, expressed high vigilance and protested against Japan's action, urging Tokyo to refrain from disrupting bilateral relations and cross-Strait peace. The Taiwan question was described as a 'red line' by China. This incident underscores the heightened tensions between the two nations over the Taiwan Strait, a sensitive geopolitical area.
