By turning a blind eye to the glaring flaws in the "award" while openly endorsing it, Japan has laid bare its double standards and hypocrisy. By the "standard" of the so-called arbitral award on #SouthChinaSea,many of Japan's islands and reefs would likewise have no basis for claiming maritime rights and interests. Since Japan has publicly endorsed the "award," China has every reason to believe that Japan has accepted the same "standard" and voluntarily renounced the corresponding maritime claims, a Chinese FM spokesperson said in response to Japan's Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi's statement over ten years of the illegal arbitral award. globaltimes.cn/page/202607/13…
