Japan to interfere with China’s interest towards South China Sea
Japan
China’s growing interest towards the South China Sea is irking a lot of countries, especially those who have direct or indirect linkage to it. Asian countries neighboring the region of the South China Sea will certainly be more affected than others and hence they are taking a strong stance against China in this matter.
Japan has been repeatedly involved in planning to restrict the Chinese movement in the region along with the United States, Australia and India and now the country has decided to directly talk to China regarding the issue.
Japanese foriegn minister Hayashi Yoshimasa asserted that they will find an opportunity to urge China to act responsibly in matters that are of global concern.
China is not only being held accountable for what all it did to territorial capture in the South China Sea but also for the human rights situation in its Xinjiang province. Multiple reports have already shown how Uyghur muslims are being subjected to violence and their basic human rights are being exploited.
The Hong Kong capture was another thing that was severely criticized by most of the nations earlier this year.
