China has lodged strong protests with Japan after a man broke into its embassy in Tokyo, in what Beijing described as a “serious and egregious” security breach.⁣
⁣
According to Chinese officials, the intruder, who claimed to be an active-duty member of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, climbed over the embassy wall on Tuesday morning and threatened to kill Chinese diplomats.⁣
⁣
China’s Foreign Ministry said it was “deeply shocked” by the incident, calling it a grave violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and a direct threat to the safety of embassy staff.⁣
⁣
Beijing accused Japan of failing to ensure the security of diplomatic missions and warned the incident reflects the “rampant spread of far-right forces” in the country, as well as a lack of discipline within the Self-Defense Forces.⁣
“The incident is egregious in both nature and impact,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said, adding that it exposes deeper problems in Japan’s policies and approach to China.⁣
⁣
China has demanded a full investigation, strict punishment of those responsible, and a clear explanation from Tokyo. It also urged Japan to take immediate steps to guarantee the safety of Chinese diplomatic personnel and prevent similar incidents.⁣
⁣
Beijing further warned the international community to remain alert to what it described as Japan’s “accelerating rightward turn.”⁣
