Sino-Japan relations at important period

"Currently the international and regional structure is undergoing profound changes, while both China and Japan, as well as their relations, are at an important period in the transformation of development patterns. China is thinking about how to deal with international society in an open, tolerant and harmonious way as a responsible major country. Japan also needs to think about how to deal with its emerging neighbor."
