A group of twenty Chinese and Japanese scholars who recently completed a three-year joint history study have concluded that the Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945) was an action of aggression by Japan against China, chinanews.cn reported today.

The scholars, selected by both governments to conduct a joint study on related Sino-Japanese history, also agreed the Nanjing massacre was a large-scale massacre against humanity.

The joint research report will be made public next month, according to Chinanews.cn.
