Japanese officials, through the voice of spokesperson Toshihiro Kitamura, stated that China's recent military maneuvers, which included missile launches and the deployment of aircraft and ships around Taiwan, exacerbate tensions in the Taiwan Strait. Japan expresses its concern regarding these actions and reaffirms its desire to resolve the Taiwan issue through dialogue and peace. The Japanese government emphasizes that stability in the region is essential for the entire international community and will closely monitor developments. These maneuvers occur in a context of heightened tensions between Beijing and Tokyo, especially after comments from Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who suggested a possible military intervention by Japan in the event of an attack on Taiwan, provoking negative reactions from China.
