Beijing, December 10 (Xinhua) — Regarding the so-called "radar targeting," Japan first intentionally interfered, then spread false rumors and inflamed the fuss. Japan is the provocateur behind this political farce and must bear full responsibility for it, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun stated on Wednesday.
As Guo Jiakun noted at a daily press briefing, Chinese media outlets have released audio recordings from the scene of the incident and revealed relevant details, revealing the facts and the true state of affairs with utmost clarity.
According to the official representative, China's exercises in the relevant waters and airspace are fully consistent with international law and international practice, and are professional, standardized, safe, and restrained, with nothing reprehensible in them.
"Yesterday, the Japanese side claimed they had received no advance notice of China's air exercises, but today they admitted they had. Japan is contradicting itself and giving evasive answers. They haven't explained why, despite receiving advance notice, they still sent fighter jets to the area where the Chinese exercises were taking place, conducted close-range reconnaissance and interference, created tension, and then fanned the flames. Is Japan attempting to deliberately divert attention and mislead the international community?" Guo Jiakun asked.
"China hopes that the international community will be able to distinguish truth from lies and will not be misled by Japan. Japan's allies should be especially vigilant and not succumb to its manipulation," the official representative emphasized.
The Japanese side must soberly recognize the root causes of the difficulties in Sino-Japanese relations, seriously reconsider and correct its mistakes, and sincerely take back the erroneous words about Taiwan made by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, Guo Jiakun concluded.
