During the Japanese Defense Minister Nobuo Kishi's visit to Vietnam a few days ago, he arbitrarily made remarks against China, accusing China of "trying to change the status quo with strength" in the Diaoyu Islands waters, slandering China's implementation of the "Maritime Police Law" intensifying tensions in the East and South China Seas, and violently intervening on the Taiwan issue. China is firmly opposed to China's internal affairs.

It is also indecent to come and not go, the Chinese Embassy in Vietnam sternly stated the following position to see and hear.

  First, China's promulgation of the "Maritime Police Law" is a routine domestic legislation that does not target specific countries and is fully in line with international law and international practice. In fact, many countries, including Japan, have formulated and implemented similar regulations for a long time.

According to China's domestic laws and relevant international laws, China's jurisdiction over sea areas is clear, and China's maritime rights and interests have not changed.

China has always been committed to properly handling maritime differences through dialogue and consultation with the countries involved in the South China Sea, not using force or threats of force, and at the same time fully and effectively implementing the "Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea", and actively promoting the formulation of substantive, effective, and consistent The "Law Convention" includes the "South China Sea Code of Conduct" in international law.

China and relevant countries are fully capable and wise to jointly maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.

  Second, the Diaoyu Islands and its affiliated islands are China's inherent territory. At the end of the 19th century, they were illegally stolen and seized by Japan through the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and the "Shimonoseki Treaty".

After Japan was defeated and surrendered in World War II, according to international legal documents such as the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Proclamation, the Diaoyu Dao returned to China as an affiliated island of Taiwan.

However, despite China’s firm opposition, the United States and Japan illegally included it in the scope of "trusteeship" and "governance", and Japan attempted to continue to occupy the Diaoyu Islands.

When China and Japan realized the normalization of diplomatic relations and concluded the "China-Japan Treaty of Peace and Friendship," the two sides put aside the dispute and reached an understanding and consensus on the "Diaoyu Islands issue for later settlement." This constitutes the status quo of the Diaoyu Islands issue, which is also China. It has maintained restraint on the Diaoyu Islands issue for a long time, and has not yet exercised the basis and prerequisites for its inherent powers such as cruise law enforcement in the relevant waters.

In recent years, Japan has continuously taken unilateral actions against the Diaoyu Islands, by illegally exercising its "law enforcement power" in the waters of the Diaoyu Islands, implementing the so-called "nationalization" and politicians' public statements, etc., unilaterally tore up the political consensus between China and Japan to shelve the dispute. The prerequisite for China's long-term restraint no longer exists.

There is no doubt about the fact that it is not the Chinese that changed the status quo in the waters of the Diaoyu Islands, but the Japanese.

The Japanese side should not call the thief to catch the thief, but beat it backwards.

  Third, Japan is the least qualified country in the world to talk about the Taiwan issue. In modern times, Japan's invasion of China's Taiwan and colonial enslavement of the people of Taiwan are historical stains that can never be washed away in the history of Japan's foreign aggression and expansion. The overwhelming provocation initiated by Japan’s ultra-right political forces on the Diaoyu Islands and Taiwan issues is essentially a blatant denial of the victory of the world’s peace-loving countries in the anti-fascist war, and a response to the post-war international order based on the United Nations Charter. Blatant challenge. Japan's wanton and reckless behavior will only once again evoke the world's memories of Japan's disgraceful history. We urge the Japanese side not to heal the scars and forget the pain, and do not underestimate the Chinese people's determination, determination, and strong ability to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
