Chinese marine surveillance ships continued their regular patrols in waters surrounding the territorial Diaoyu Islands on Monday, the State Oceanic Administration said.
Since taking office as Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe has been launching frequent diplomatic blitzes targeting China.
A spokesman for China's Foreign Ministry Tuesday expressed China's demand that Japan return to the track of managing and resolving disputes over the Diaoyu Islands.

Chinese marine surveillance ships continued to conduct regular patrols of the territorial waters surrounding the Diaoyu Islands on Thursday, the State Oceanic Administration said.
