BEIJING - China urges Japan to stop overstepping the line, retract its erroneous words and deeds, and honor its commitment to China with concrete actions, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Monday.

It was reported that recently some Japanese politicians claimed that China had "overreacted" to the wrong remarks made by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi regarding Taiwan.

In response, spokesperson for the ministry Mao Ning told a regular news briefing that China has repeatedly stated its solemn position on the wrong remarks made by Takaishi regarding Taiwan, saying that the relevant remarks seriously violate the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan and fundamentally undermine the political foundation of China-Japan relations.
