Japanese envoy to visit China ahead of possible summit

Increase the peace!

Adopt balanced policy and not one of appeasement to protect your long term interests.

China officially invited to Abe to attend the event marking Beijing’s victory in what it calls the war of resistance against Japanese aggression, but it has yet to receive a response, Kyodo News reported.

so now it's too late....How about attending 71st anniversary?

A meeting with the Chinese is one tough cookie for Abe. Certainly not his cup of tea .

A meeting between Mr Abe and President Xi Jinping can surely only be a good thing for peace and stability in this region of our planet. That is unless Abe tries to use it in an attempt to "re-educate" China on his fluffy warped view of the Japanese military 70+ years ago.

If he was a genuine man of peace and wanted some respect from others around the world he should visit Nanjing’s Massacre Memorial and express his deepest regret and sorrow for the murder and mistreatement of all those who suffered at the hands of japan's ruthless occupying forces as welll as some of the decent Japanese soldiers who had no choice but to follow the orders of the the evil war criminals of the time. Just a thought...
