TOKYO: Japan and China held high-level talks at the weekend as they seek ways
to repair relations damaged by a territorial row over islands in the East China
Sea, Tokyo said on Wednesday.
Relations between the two
countries have sunk to new lows in a vicious spat over a group of uninhibited,
Tokyo-administered islands, called Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China.
Japanese Vice Foreign Minister
Chikao Kawai visited Shanghai over the weekend and met China's Vice Foreign
Minister Zhang Zhijun to discuss the island dispute, local media reported.
The meeting was "part of
communications that go on between Japan and China at various levels and in
various forms about the present situation over the Senkaku islands," said
top government spokesman Osamu Fujimura.
Fujimura declined to confirm
further details, including who took part.
The two officials from Japan and
China also met in Beijing last month.
