Abe must relent: CPPCC spokesman

Lyu says bilateral dialogue depends on leader's future words and deeds

Sino-Japanese dialogue will be possible only after Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe ends words and deeds that jeopardize bilateral relations and create regional tensions, a spokesman for China's political advisory body said on Sunday.

Relations with Japan were the only foreign policy topic that Lyu Xinhua, spokesman for the second session of the 12th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, touched upon at the news conference, which is generally seen as the start of the two sessions.
