China's Warning to Japan: NATO Expansion Support Aggravates Putin's War

China's Ambassador to Russia, Zhang Hanhui, has warned Japan and other countries against supporting NATO's expansion into the East and Asia-Pacific, urging them to learn from history and not unilaterally undermine peace and stability in the region.
