CCP Sanctions on Japanese Firms May Trigger Reciprocal Retaliation — The Show Has Just Begun
The Chinese Communist Party’s “wolf warrior” diplomacy has long been criticized internationally as aggressive and confrontational, reinforcing perceptions of a “China threat” and often resulting in what critics call “lifting a rock only to drop it on one’s own foot.” Recently, China’s Ministry of Commerce announced sanctions against 20 Japanese companies. In the eyes of many observers, this move also amounts to another self-inflicted blow. It signals a further escalation of tensions stemming from remarks made last year by Japanese politician Sanae Takaichi, who said, “If Taiwan faces a crisis,...
