Japan has demanded action from Beijing over violent threats made by a Chinese envoy against Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi as the Chinese regime ramps up pressure and threats against Tokyo.
Japan’s foreign ministry said on Nov. 14 that it summoned China’s ambassador to lodge strong protests regarding the “highly inappropriate” statements by Consul General Xue Jian of the Chinese Consulate General in Osaka, the largest metropolis in western Japan.
