If I remember correctly, it was in 2010, just before Xi Jinping was going to be the leader of China. He came to Japan to meet with the Emperor Heisei. This is enough to prove that he actually attaches great importance to developing and improving China-Japan relations. But unfortunately, When the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan regained power from the Democratic Party, When Abe returned to power,China-Japanese relations are deteriorating. For my understanding which is, American and China's relationship is not good therefore Japan has to be standing beside America. And also because of that, in recent years there's not any good news but bad news about China in Japanese media. Even my mother-in-law, she was the one who really liked China, but by Japanese Media's influence she is so afraid when every time I bring my kids back to China for holidays recent years. 😓 The situation has become into what it is today It's not just China's responsibility.
