Japan will remain focused on ensuring close communications with China, including high-level dialogue, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said Thursday.
Kishida’s comments, delivered during a press conference at the Prime Minister’s Office in Tokyo, suggests the government intends to lay the groundwork for talks between Kishida and Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit to be held in the United States in mid-November.
Touching upon Beijing’s embargo on all Japanese seafood imports, Kishida said, “We’ll continue conferring on this and other issues with the aim of maintaining a constructive and stable bilateral relationship.”
