[NaidheachdanNewTangDynasty19Samhain2024àmBeijing]Recently, the leader of the Communist Party of ChinaXi JinpingHe held a brief sideline meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba at the APEC summit. Xi Jinping gave Shi Pomao a gift, but Shi Pomao was bad and his face was ashen.
The 2024 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Conference (APEC) was held in Lima, the capital of Peru On the evening of November 15, local time, the heads of state of China and Japan held a side discussion for about 35 minutes at the summit . .Xi JinpingShigeru Ishiba promised to resume imports of Japanese aquatic products into China.
Senior Japanese media personality Akio Yaita posted on Facebook on the 17th that Xi Jinping’s move can be considered a small gift from Shigeru Ishiba. Last August, China imposed unilateral economic sanctions on Japan without scientific basis. The acquisition was announced in September of this year, but was never implemented. This time, Xi Jinping personally agreed again, which can be considered as China’s goodwill towards Japan.
However, many media have noticed that Ishiba and Xi Jinping were smileless and showed almost no emotion during the talks.
The picture accompanying the press release of the Chinese Communist Party’s Xinhua News Agency also showed that when Shi Pomao shook hands with Xi, Xi was smiling, but Shi’s face was expressionless.

Yaita Akio said: “Many media have noticed that Ishiba always looks sad and unsmiling when he sees Xi Jinping, and his face has almost no emotion when he shakes hands. There is a reason for this.”
Two months ago, a Japanese child was attacked and killed by an unknown Chinese man on his way to school in Shenzhen China has yet to provide a detailed explanation of the case this summer, issues such as the introduction of Chinese military planes into Japanese airspace were also not addressed.
Akio Yaita said, “If Shigeru Ishiba greets Xi Jinping with a smile at this time, he will definitely be criticized by the Japanese media as ‘pro-China’ and ‘favoring China’.” Ishiba Shigeru, who does not have a strong domestic support base. , the media is very afraid.”
In addition, regarding this meeting between the heads of state of China and Japan, there were many differences in the media reports from both sides.
According to Japan’s Kyodo News Agency, the two heads of state agreed to effectively implement the consensus on the resumption of Japanese aquatic products into China. Ishiba told the media after the meeting, “President Xi himself referred to the consensus reached into action, which is a very important statement. “
However, the Xinhua News Agency, the official media outlet of the Chinese Communist Party, said only in the last sentence of the report that “the consensus reached on the release of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water into the sea in Japan will to turn it into action as soon as possible. .” He was unwilling to comment on Xi’s position on the resumption of imports of aquatic products.
Current affairs reporter Zhou Xiaohui believes that the Beijing authorities seem to be worried about China’s domestic “little pink” protesting against this issue.
The Kyodo News report also said that the two sides affirmed that they will fully promote the “mutually beneficial strategic relationship” that will expand the common interests between Japan and China and build a constructive bilateral relationship and stable
The report also noted that Shigeru Ishiba expressed “deep concern” about China’s growing military activity. However, the Chinese Communist Party’s Xinhua News Agency did not mention a word about Ishiba’s statement.
Regarding the Taiwan issue, Xinhua News Agency reported that Shigeru Ishiba said, “Regarding the Taiwan issue, Japan’s position regarding compliance with the 1972 Japan-China Joint Statement has not changed at all documents between Japan and China.”
Kyodo News reported that Ishiba replied that peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait is of utmost importance to the international community. There is no official statement from Xinhua News Agency. Zhou Xiaohui believes that this may be another small way for the CCP to deceive the Chinese people.
In addition, Xinhua News Agency did not mention two points First, regarding the death of a Japanese boy in Shenzhen, Shigeru Ishiba asked China to ensure the safety of Japanese nationals in China. Xi responded by ensuring the safety of all foreign citizens, including Japanese.
Second, Shigeru Ishiba requested that Japanese citizens arrested in China be released early, and Xi did not respond.
Zhou Xiaohui said, judging by the fact that the CCP’s official media deliberately ignores and distorts the content of the reports, the CCP is reducing its diplomatic stance towards Japan CCP, as a head – the seat of the USA. However, no matter how hard the CCP tries to get out of the growing situation, it will not be easy.
Senior Japanese media person Akio Yaita believes that the CCP is begging Japan and wants to establish a dialogue channel with the new Trump administration in the United States through Japan, but Xi may have found the wrong person. Because Trump has rejected Ishiba’s request to meet in the United States. Furthermore, the Liberal Democratic Party led by Shigeru Ishiba does not hold a majority of seats in the Diet, and the regime is on the verge of collapse.
