Chinese President Xi Jinping's meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, upon request, on the sidelines of the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in Gyeongju, the Republic of Korea, on Friday was an opportunity for the two sides to build constructive, stable bilateral relations.

中国国家主席习近平周五应日本首相高市早苗请求，在韩国庆州举行的亚太经合组织领导人非正式会议期间与其会晤，为双方构建建设性、稳定的双边关系提供了契机。

Takaichi did acknowledge the importance of China-Japan relations and that the two neighbors share a responsibility to ensure regional and global peace and prosperity. And she did express Japan's desire to maintain high-level exchanges, enhance communication, and promote cooperation to advance a strategic relationship of mutual benefit, which aligns with the broader goal of fostering a constructive and stable partnership.

高市早苗表示承认中日关系的重要性，并表示两国作为邻国共同肩负着维护地区和世界和平繁荣的责任。她也的确表达了日本希望保持高层交流、加强沟通、促进合作以推进互利共赢的战略关系，这符合建立建设性稳定伙伴关系的总体目标。

Takaichi also said that, on the Taiwan question, Japan will abide by its position stated in the 1972Japan-China Joint Statement.

高市早苗同时表示，在台湾问题上，日本将恪守1972年《中日联合声明》所载立场。

However, actions must align with words. Takaichi's meeting with some "officials" of Taiwan island during the APEC meeting, and her reference on social media to one of them with the title given him by the secessionist-minded Lai Ching-te authorities, contradicted what she said.

高市早苗并未做到言行必须一致。高市早苗在APEC会议期间会见台湾岛某些“官员”，并在社交媒体上使用台独分子赖清德当局授予其中一人的头衔。高市早苗的言行与其表态相悖。

These words and deeds violate the one-China principle, the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan, and the basic norms of international relations, and send a wrong signal to the "Taiwan independence" forces.

这些言行违反一个中国原则、中日四项政治文件精神及国际关系基本准则，向“台独”势力发出错误信号。

In the 1972 joint statement, the Japanese government stated that it fully understands and respects the stand of the Government of the People's Republic of China that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China, and the Japanese government firmly maintains its stand underArticle 8 of the Potsdam Proclamation.
