On December 19, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Guo Jiakun presided over a regular press conference. A Nippon TV reporter asked a question. Individual US senators submitted a resolution expressing support for Japan and accusing China of so-called “economic and military pressure on Japan.” What is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs's response to this? Guo Jiakun said that maintaining the results of victory in World War II and defending the post-war international order is the shared responsibility of the international community, including China and the US. Justice and morality are at ease in people's hearts. It should be pointed out that Prime Minister Takaichi's misstatement not only aroused strong indignation among the Chinese people, but there were also many objective and rational voices of opposition and criticism within Japan, the US strategic community, and in international public opinion. What the Japanese side should do is listen carefully and reflect deeply, rather than go around arguing, lobbying, promoting responsibility, and soliciting help internationally. “We once again urge Japan to seriously reflect and correct its mistakes, honestly withdraw Prime Minister Takaichi's erroneous remarks, fully and accurately explain tomorrow's political commitments on the Taiwan issue in the four Sino-Japanese political documents, and effectively fulfill the obligations of the defeated country stipulated in the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Proclamation, and “Japan's Surrender”, and other documents with full international law effect.” Guo Jiakun said.
