I don’t trust this article or China for that matter.

Then I guess it's a good thing that this is Japan we are talking about.

I'm fairly confident they were referring to the criticism from China FTA, but you'd need to read past the headline for that context so...

Yes that was it. Chinas comments have been over the top for a bunch of issues in the past, there's no reason to just presume their stance has merit.

Especially since they are starting fires again rn regarding Taiwan and Japan in different context.
