［社説］中国大使館侵入　謝罪し再発防止徹底を | 社説 | 沖縄タイムス＋プラス

This page is an editorial discussing an incident where a 23-year-old Japan Self-Defense Forces officer infiltrated the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo with a knife. The editorial argues that Japan violated the Vienna Convention's obligation to ensure the safety of diplomatic facilities. Japan's response using vague language like "regrettable" is criticized as insufficient, particularly the delayed response from the Defense Minister. The editorial calls for verification of military personnel education and ideology control, warning that mishandling could harm Japanese citizens in China and damage economic and security interests. It emphasizes that adhering to international law and resolving tensions is essential for national interests.
