China Cancels Meeting with Japan over G7 Statement
August 4

China has cancelled a bilateral meeting between the Chinese and the Japanese foreign ministers in Phnom Penh over the G7's joint statement on Taiwan, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Hua Chunying said at a regular briefing on August 4.

"China is no longer planning to hold a meeting in Phnom Penh between the foreign ministers of China and Japan after the Japanese side published a statement jointly with its G7 and EU partners to express ungrounded criticism. The facts are distorted in the statement, besides, it justifies U.S. moves in violation of China's sovereignty. The people of China are highly displeased with this," she said.
