Kono looks to visit China in late March to enhance economic ties

The slowdown of the China's economy, accelated by the US-China trade friction pushes China to have closer relation in economy with Japan. Xi Jinping's will must be to utilize Japan temporary to overcome the difficulty, however I hope the Japanese govt let them realize the importance of cooperation.

I hope the Japanese govt let them realize the importance of cooperation.

It's impossible for China or Korea to realize the importance of cooperation.  They don't consider other people as equal.

Move with caution and do not "expect" a "good deal" for Japan.

Regardless of what may be "signed", do "expect" much of what was signed to be "ignored" by China.
