China’s growing naval activity in Japanese waters is a big concern, Japan lawmakers says
After Japanese media reported that Japan, France and the United States will hold joint military drills for the first time next May, state minister of defense Yasuhide Nakayama said, “Tokyo feels threatened by China’s activity in the waters surrounding Japan.”
An opinion piece in Chinese state-backed tabloid Global times said the planned military exercises show that Tokyo wants to rely on its allies to support its “illegal maritime claims:.
Nakayama said Beijing is “unilaterally” changing the status quo in the East China sea. The Chinese ships and the coast guard vessels try to get into Japan’s territorial water every single day. Also, he continued that Tokyo is concerned about Beijing’s cooperation with Moscow.
