JAPAN has expressed concern to China over its military drills in waters around Taiwan, a government spokesman said today as US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visits the island.
“The maritime areas announced by the Chinese side as those to be used for military exercises overlaps with Japan’s exclusive economic zone. Considering the live-fire training nature of this military activity, Japan has expressed concerns to the Chinese side,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno told reporters. – AFP, August 3, 2022.
