All peace-loving countries must firmly resist Japan's reckless moves of neo-militarism: FM spokesperson

BEIJING, April 28 (Xinhua) -- All peace loving countries in the world must remain highly vigilant and firmly resist Japan's reckless moves of neo-militarism, said Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian on Tuesday.

Lin made the remarks at a regular press briefing when answering a query related to Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's claim to be prepared for a "long-term conflict" during a panel tasked with reviewing her country's security and defense policies.

Lin said that Japan has not only failed to do serious soul-searching of its past wars of aggression, but also attempted to resume military expansion. "The international community will never accept this," he added.
