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.

This is clearly a structural turning point.

Trump: Jag hade just ett mycket bra telefonsamtal med Kinas president Xi Jinping. Det var ett långt och detaljerat samtal, och vi diskuterade många viktiga ämnen, inklusive handel, militära frågor, min kommande resa till Kina i april (som jag ser mycket fram emot), Taiwan, kriget mellan Ryssland och Ukraina, situationen i Iran, Kinas inköp av olja och gas från USA, Kinas överväganden om att öka sina jordbruksinköp (inklusive att öka sojabönsproduktionen denna säsong till 20 miljoner ton, och de har redan åtagit sig att göra det till 25 miljoner ton nästa säsong), leveranser av flygmotorer och många andra frågor. Alla diskussioner var mycket positiva. Relationen mellan USA och Kina, och min personliga relation med president Xi Jinping, är mycket god, och vi båda inser vikten av att upprätthålla denna goda relation. Jag tror att arbetet med president Xi Jinping och Folkrepubliken Kina under mitt treåriga presidentskap kommer att ge många positiva resultat.

Trump: If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a “Drop Off Port” for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken.
