During the G20 summit in Turkey on Nov. 15 and 16, Japanese Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe reportedly met with German Chancellor, Australian
Prime Minister and British Prime Minister. He expressed concerns about
China's island building in the South China Sea and called for their
support in ensuring the rule of law there. In response, a Chinese
Foreign Ministry spokesperson on Tuesday urged Japan to stop making
"groundless accusations" against China, and said Japan is "a
non-relevant party in the South China Sea issue."
"China expresses dissatisfaction towards what Japan did. Japan is not
a party concerned in the South China Sea issue. Instead of being
prudent in its words and actions, Japan has recently kept hyping up the
South China Sea issue, which is not in line with the improvement of the
China-Japan relationship and will undermine regional peace and
stability. We urge Japan to stop groundless accusations on the South
China Sea issue," said Hong Lei, spokesperson of Chinese Ministry of
Foreign Affairs.
