Japan fördömer kinesisk diplomats hot om att halshugga landets premiärminister | NTD NYHETER

The former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had once warned that an emergency situation in Taiwan is an emergency situation for Japan. Shinzo Abe's comment meant that a Chinese attack on Taiwan would directly affect Japan's security. The new Prime Minister Takahichi emphasized this statement even more clearly on November 7. She said that an emergency situation in Taiwan could pose a threat to Japan's existence and thus indicated that Japan could come to take military action if China attacks Taiwan. Zhou Jian, China's consul general in Osaka, wrote on Expo on Friday, This miserable head that carelessly sticks out must be cut off without a moment's hesitation. On Monday, the Japanese chief of staff called the statement extremely inappropriate and urged Beijing to take appropriate measures. China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, however, defended the diplomat's statement at its press conference on Monday. Despite the fact that Zhou Jian deleted the terrorist-like statement, he continues to publish similar messages on Expo. Among these, he wrote, An emergency situation in Taiwan is an emergency situation for Japan. It is a dead end that some stupid Japanese politicians are trying to walk, and dialogue is no longer possible. The U.S. ambassador to Japan commented that the Chinese diplomat had threatened Japan's Prime Minister and that Beijing's actions once again show proof of inappropriate behavior. Prime Minister Takahichi says that she has no intention of withdrawing her statements on Taiwan. A major Chinese offensive against Taiwan would disrupt the global supply chains that are dependent on Taiwan for 99% of the trade. At the same time, it would strengthen China's military position in the region. Takahichi, who appeared last month, is the first Japanese prime minister to describe a concrete scenario that could motivate military intervention.
