(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

The Diaoyu Islands are at the heart of a territorial¹ dispute between China and Japan. China has voiced its firm opposition² to the inclusion of the islands in the US-Japan security treaty. This comes in response to remarks made by US President Barack Obama in an interview with the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper ahead of his visit to Japan.

For more on the issue, we’re joined in the studio by Professor Wang Yiwei, director of the Institute of International Affairs at Renmin University of China. Thank you for joining us.
