AI Satirical Cartoon丨How Japan's right-wing forces knowingly distorted facts and concocted false narratives

It’s not the first time that the right-wing forces in Japan have concocted false narratives, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Dec. 17, 2025.

Guo made the remarks at a regular news briefing in response to a media query. He said some in Japan knowingly distort facts, refuse to correct their wrongdoings, and attempt to feign innocence for sympathy in the international community.

Guo noted that Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s erroneous remarks on Taiwan have been met with the Chinese people’s indignation as well as opposition and criticism from Japan and some other countries.

What the Japanese side should do is to listen to these calls and do soul-searching rather than make futile attempts to persuade other countries into believing their groundless explanations, said Guo.
