Accusing the Japanese foreign minister of asserting that Japan would not change its stance that the issue of sovereignty does not exist over the Diaoyu Islands, he termed the Japanese side's claim it does not recognize a dispute of sovereignty over the issue of the islands self-deception.

As Japan "purchased" the islands illegally, scrapping an important agreement already reached between the two countries, he urged Japan not to harbor any illusion about the seizure of the islands.
