Ο υπουργός Εξωτερικών της Κίνας Ουάνγκ Γι επέρριψε την ευθύνη για
την ένταση μεταξύ των δύο χωρών στην Ιαπωνία που τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2012
εθνικοποίησε τις βραχονησίδες που στα ιαπωνικά αποκαλούνται Σενκάκου
και στα κινεζικά Ντιαογού.
«Παρ' όλ' αυτά, είμαστε πάντα έτοιμοι να καθίσουμε στο τραπέζι των διαπραγματεύσεων με τους Ιάπωνες για να συζητήσουμε από κοινού έναν τρόπο χειρισμού της παρούσας κατάστασης. Όμως πρώτα η Ιαπωνία θα πρέπει να παραδεχτεί ότι είναι διαφιλονικούμενη (η κυριαρχία της επί των νησιών), όπως ξέρει όλος ο κόσμος. Πιστεύω ότι κάποια μέρα οι Ιάπωνες θα επιστρέψουν στο τραπέζι του διαλόγου», δήλωσε ο Ουάνγκ σε ομιλία του στο ινστιτούτο μελετών Μπρούκινγκς της Ουάσινγκτον.

Η Ιαπωνία υποστηρίζει ότι η Κίνα δεν έχει, ιστορικά, βάσιμους λόγους να διεκδικεί τα νησιά και κατηγορεί το Πεκίνο ότι προσπαθεί να την προκαλέσει και να την εκφοβίσει.
- Την Πέμπτη η ιαπωνική ακτοφυλακή ανέφερε ότι δύο κινεζικά σκάφη εισήλθαν στα χωρικά ύδατα των νησιών, σε μια περιοχή που εικάζεται ότι είναι πολύ πλούσια σε υδρογονάνθρακες.

China Open to Talks with Japan on Island Dispute...
ReplyDeleteChina's foreign minister says Beijing is open to talks with Japan over a group of disputed islands, if Tokyo is willing to first acknowledge there is such a dispute.
Wang Yi made his comments Friday at a forum hosted by the Brookings Institute in Washington.
"China and Japan are perpetual neighbors and the two countries have very close people-to-people exchange and business ties. We are still ready to sit down and have a dialogue with the Japanese side, but first the Japanese side needs to recognize there is such a dispute."
Ties between the world's second- and third-largest economies have deteriorated since last year when Japan purchased some of the islands from their private Japanese landowner.
China refused to recognize the purchase. It responded by sending increased air and sea patrols to the area, in what is seen as an attempt to challenge Japanese control.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has since called for high-level talks to improve ties, but his government has refused to acknowledge there is a dispute over the islands' sovereignty. China has dismissed Mr. Abe's offer of talks as insincere.
The Japanese government has defended its purchase of the islands, saying it was meant to keep them out of the hands of an outspokenly nationalistic ex-governor of Tokyo.
The islands are known as Senkaku in Japan and as Diaoyu in China. They are uninhabited, but are surrounded by rich fishing grounds and potential energy reserves. They are also located near strategic shipping lanes.
Japan annexed the islets in the late 19th century. China claimed sovereignty over the archipelago in 1971, saying ancient maps show it has been Chinese territory for centuries.

Four China coastguard ships in disputed waters: Japan...
ReplyDeleteTOKYO: Chinese ships were in disputed waters on Friday, Japan's coastguard said, a week after Beijing said talks were possible if Tokyo was prepared to acknowledge the existence of a disagreement.
The four Chinese coastguard vessels sailed into 12-nautical-mile territorial waters off one of the Tokyo-controlled Senkaku islands -- which Beijing calls the Diaoyus -- at around 3:00pm (0600 GMT), the Japanese coastguard said.

China warns U.S., Japan, Australia not to gang up in sea disputes...
ReplyDelete(Reuters) - China said on Monday the United States, Australia and Japan should not use their alliance as an excuse to intervene in territorial disputes in the East China Sea and South China Sea, and urged them to refrain from inflaming regional tensions.
On Friday, Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry raised the maritime disputes during a trilateral strategic dialogue in Bali, Indonesia.
Relations between China and Japan, the world's second- and third-largest economies, have been troubled in recent years by a row over tiny, uninhabited islands in the East China Sea known as the Senkaku in Japan and the Diaoyu in China.
In the South China Sea, Vietnam, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia, Brunei and China are involved in long-standing sovereignty disputes over the potentially oil- and gas-rich island chain.
A joint statement from the U.S.-Japan-Australia meeting opposed "coercive or unilateral actions" that could change the status quo in the East China Sea and called on claimants to maritime disputes in the South China Sea to refrain from destabilizing actions, according to the State Department website.
"The United States, Japan and Australia are allies but this should not become an excuse to interfere in territorial disputes, otherwise it will only make the problems more complicated and harm the interests of all parties," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said on Monday.
"We urge the relevant countries to respect facts, distinguish right from wrong, be cautious, and stop all words and deeds that are not beneficial to the proper handling of the issue and undermine regional stability," she said in comments on the ministry website.
The U.S.-Japan-Australia meeting took place on the sidelines of an annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting on the Indonesian island of Bali.
Separately, another Chinese foreign ministry spokesman, Qin Gang, voiced China's opposition to Kishida's raising of maritime security at an informal breakfast meeting with foreign ministers, saying that it has long been considered inappropriate to discuss issues of political security or sensitive and controversial topics at APEC.
"There has not been a problem with freedom and security of navigation in this region for a long time," Qin said in another statement released late on Sunday.
"Playing up so-called maritime security issue goes against real efforts for the freedom and security of navigation."
