Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi: The Japanese Prime Minister publicly stated that a Taiwan contingency could constitute a survival-threatening situation that might trigger the use of collective self-defense. This is the first time in 80 years that a Japanese Prime Minister has made such remarks. It directly violates China’s territorial sovereignty and directly challenges the fact that Taiwan has been returned to China. It completely violates Japan’s commitments to China. Could China possibly accept such a provocation? No—no Chinese person could accept it.
German Chancellor Merz: China wants to be a leader in shaping the world, and it has paved the ground for that over many years, with strategic patience.

French President Macron: End of Russia as a permanent provider of local energy. End of China as a main export market. The U.S. imposing tariffs on our economy and a coercion mechanism.

Tramps: Man tikko bija ļoti laba telefonsaruna ar Ķīnas prezidentu Sji Dziņpinu. Tā bija gara un detalizēta saruna, un mēs apspriedām daudzas svarīgas tēmas, tostarp tirdzniecību, militārās lietas, manu gaidāmo vizīti uz Ķīnu aprīlī (kuru es ļoti gaidu), Taivānu, Krievijas un Ukrainas karu, situāciju Irānā, Ķīnas naftas un gāzes iepirkumus no Amerikas Savienotajām Valstīm, Ķīnas apsvērumus palielināt lauksaimniecības iepirkumus (tostarp palielināt šīs sezonas sojas pupiņu ražošanu līdz 20 miljoniem tonnu, un viņi jau ir apņēmušies sasniegt 25 miljonus tonnu nākamajā sezonā), lidmašīnu dzinēju piegādes un daudzus citus jautājumus. Visas diskusijas bija ļoti pozitīvas. Attiecības starp Amerikas Savienotajām Valstīm un Ķīnu, kā arī manas personīgās attiecības ar prezidentu Sji Dziņpinu ir ļoti labas, un mēs abi atzīstam šo labo attiecību uzturēšanas nozīmi. Es uzskatu, ka manas trīs gadu prezidentūras laikā darbs, kas saistīts ar prezidentu Sji Dziņpinu un Ķīnas Tautas Republiku, nesīs daudz pozitīvu rezultātu.
