Credit: Reuters/Brendan McDermid By Yoko Nishikawa TOKYO | Tue Sep 28, 2010 12:35am EDT TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's prime minister will attend an Asia-Europe summit next week where his Chinese counterpart will also be present, Japan's top spokesman said on Tuesday, as Tokyo struggles to repair worsening ties with Beijing. Japan's detention of a Chinese trawler captain, whose fishing boat collided with two Japanese coastguard ships, has sparked renewed tensions between Beijing and Tokyo, highlighting the fragility of relations between Asia's biggest economies. Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshito Sengoku said Japanese diplomats might try to arrange a meeting between Prime Minister Naoto Kan and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, who will also attend the October 4-5 gathering in Brussels, if the environment was right. But he added: "The ball is in China's court." Japanese ruling party officials had earlier said Kan would skip the meeting due to a parliament session beginning on Friday. "There's no question that (this dispute) is not desirable for economic growth and peaceful security conditions in Asia," Sengoku, the top government spokesman, told a news conference. "We need to discuss with ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) and European leaders what kind of a relationship Japan and China will nurture within Asia, how we can enrich our strategically, mutually beneficial ties," Sengoku added. A verbal tug of war has continued even after the captain was released and returned home on the weekend. The collision took place in waters near disputed islands -- called the Diaoyu in China and Senkaku in Japan -- that both sides claim. The spat has raised concerns about damage to Sino-Japanese trade ties at a time when Japan is becoming increasingly reliant on China's dynamism for growth. China became Japan's biggest trading partner last year. Concerns have grown that Beijing is holding back shipments of rare earth minerals vital for electronics and auto parts, although China's commerce ministry has denied an export ban. "China's de facto ban on rare earth exports to Japan could have substantial impact on the Japanese economy, so we need to restore economic ties between Japan and China as soon as possible," Economics Minister Banri Kaieda told a separate news conference. MALICIOUS ACT Japan has urged calm, but the government is under fire from domestic media, opposition lawmakers and some in the ruling party for "caving in" to Chinese pressure by releasing the captain after China detained the four Japanese citizens on suspicion of violating a law protecting military facilities. Japan has denied a link between the two matters. 1 2 Next World Japan Comments See All Comments (2) | Post Comment Sep 28, 2010 2:19am EDT China is very popular around the world right now because it is a huge market and it has got through the recent crisis almost unscathed, unlike most other nations. This, however, seems to give the Chinese government an incredible confidence at the present moment in regards to dealing with international political and economic matters. I may be wrong but China’s current attitude may prove to be short-sighted. Every nation experiences ups and downs over the years, and so will China sooner or later. They may very well regret their almost “arrogant” stance against the rest of the world in a few years. I hope, China will look back at its long and impressive history, find back to the values and intellectual brilliance they once possessed, and become a constructive member of the international community again.
