China has advised its citizens to avoid traveling to Japan amid escalating tensions following remarks by Japan’s new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi regarding military responses to a potential Chinese attack on Taiwan. This diplomatic dispute intensified after Takaichi’s comments on November 7, prompting Beijing to summon Japan’s ambassador while Japan summoned China’s ambassador in response to a now-removed threatening post. China’s embassy in Japan highlighted significant risks to the safety of Chinese citizens and airlines offered refunds for flights to Japan. The situation underscores the fragile relationship between the two countries, marked by historical mistrust and territorial disputes.
