Meanwhile, Japan has strongly protested China’s transfer to limit the export of ‘dual-use’ objects to twenty Japanese enterprise entities that Beijing says might be used for army functions, within the newest twist in a months-long diplomatic row between the 2 nations, as per Al Jazeera.
Japanese Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Sato Kei stated at a news convention that the transfer by China’s Ministry of Commerce on Tuesday was ‘deplorable’ and would ‘not be tolerated’ by Tokyo.
Tokyo and Beijing have a traditionally acrimonious relationship, however diplomatic ties took a flip for the more serious in November, when Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi advised legislators {that a} Chinese assault on Taiwan would represent a ‘survival-threatening state of affairs’ for Japan, which may necessitate army motion, Al Jazeera reported.
