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. China has opposed the potential opening of a NATO liaison office in Japan and has pledged a resolute response to any actions that damage its legitimate rights and interests. The idea of a liaison office in Japan has been shelved for now, but reports suggest that the bloc may consider establishing a foothold in Tokyo in the future.
