China expresses concern over Japan’s military and nuclear developments

China has voiced serious concern over Japan’s recent military and security moves, including ambiguous statements on nuclear policy and plans for constitutional amendments.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian criticised Japanese officials for their recent remarks. He highlighted that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi in the Diet this week avoided stating whether her administration adheres to the Three Non-Nuclear Principles, which commit Japan not to possess, produce, or permit the introduction of nuclear weapons.
