  • "Given the increasingly severe international situation, I believe we may truly be at a turning point in history," Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya said at the start of the meeting with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul. "That makes it even more important to overcome division and confrontation through dialogue and cooperation," he added.

I can't trust anything coming out of countries occupied by the US. And it's likely the same for China, these diplomatic statements are a whole nothingburger.

I agree these statements alone aren't really worth much, it's going to be interesting to see if there's going to be a general political shift to improve relations with China going forward though. The US economy isn't exactly in a great shape right now, and they're fighting a tariff war with everyone. This will further erode relations with the vassals going forward.
