Speaking at a recent international forum, Wang emphasized the importance of the two countries, both significant players on the world stage, working together for the betterment of Asia and the global community. “As close neighbors, sincerity and harmony are essential in our relations,” Wang stated.
He highlighted the progress made in improving bilateral relations and stressed the need for Japan to adhere to the principles outlined in the four political documents between the two countries, including the China-Japan Joint Statement.
