(VOVworld)- Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said Monday that Japan is seriously concerned about the air defense identification zone (ADIZ) set up by China in the East China Sea. Abe said unilateral Chinese action can change the situation in the East China Sea and escalate tension in the region. He said Japan will oppose any use of force and is determined to protect its coastal areas and airspace. Last Saturday China announced its new air defense zone requiring all passing by aircraft to maintain radio contact, reveal their air route, and obey the instructions of Chinese authorities. Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida, has said that Japan does not accept the ADIZ, which contains the territory disputed by the two countries, Senkaku/ Diaoyu Island. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Qin Gang called Japan’s criticism “totally unproved and unacceptable”.
