Japan should learn lessons from history and abide by the three
basic documents on Sino-Japanese relations, said China's Foreign
Minister Tang Jiaxuan Thursday, at a press conference of the First
Session of the 10th National People's Congress (NPC).
Necessary conditions have to be created for future high-level
exchanges between the two nations, the foreign minister said, in
response to a question raised by a Japanese reporter from the
NHK.
The three documents Tang mentioned refer to the Treaty of Peace and
Friendship between China and Japan, the Sino-Japan Joint
Declaration, and the Sino-Japan Statement.
The bilateral ties between the two countries have run into
difficulties due to official visits of Yasukuni Shrine by Japanese
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi in recent years.
