On January 19, 2015 the Ministry of Foreign Affiars of the People's Republic of China protested against the comment which made by Fumio Kishida, the Foreign Minister of Japan. On January 17, Fumio Kishida attended the Council on World Problems and gave a speech in New Delhi, India. The purpose of the speech was to appeal Japan as a staunch pacifist and strengthen the relationship between India and Japan. In the question-and-answer session, he was asked about border-related question and remarked that Arunachal Pradesh is considered a part of Indian territory. China immediately protested against Japanese government and requested to clarify their position. On the same day, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan has clarified that they do not hold any position in this border issue. In order to avoid conflict, I think Japan should not be involved in this delicate border issues between India and China. Instead, they should respect their effort to resolve it through negotiation. Because of these controversial remark are made in the conference, most media will only broadcast about it and the significant point of the conference will not be reported. http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/china-slams-japan-on-arunachal-pradesh-controversy-hong-lei-fumio-kishida-sushma-swaraj/1/414105.html
