Wang Yi: I do not believe that the situation in the Asia-Pacific is becoming increasingly tense.

In fact, Asia is probably the only region that maintains overall peace.

Wang Yi: The Japanese PM said a Taiwan contingency could trigger collective self-defense. This is the first time in 80 years that a Japanese leader has made such remarks.

It violates China’s territorial sovereignty and Japan’s commitments to China.

China cannot accept this.

Wang Yi to Japan: If you go back down that old road, it will be a dead end.

If you try gambling again, the loss will be faster and more devastating.
