Abstract:

Since the normalization of the Sino Japan relations, each generation of Chinese leaders have attached great importance to the Sino Japan relations and confirmed the wish for long lasting friendly relations with Japan. Since the 21st century, the relations between the two countries have experienced ups and downs due to historical issues and practical interests. Chinese government continuously adjusts the policy towards Japan on the premise of maintaining friendly Sino Japan relations. In the current predicament of Sino Japan relations, China and Japan should implement the fundamental spirit and concrete content of the four political documents agreed by the two nations, work together to promote the bilateral relations towards the lofty goals of “living together peacefully, maintaining a long lasting friendship for future generations, mutual beneficial cooperation and common development”.
