China condemns Japanese politicians over Yasukuni Shrine offerings

China has strongly criticized Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi for sending ritual offerings to the Yasukuni Shrine, while some cabinet members and lawmakers also visited the site. A spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in Japan said the shrine honors 14 convicted Class-A war criminals and accused Japanese politicians of attempting to whitewash wartime history.

Marking the 80th anniversary of the Tokyo Trials, China urged Japan to face up to its wartime responsibilities, reject militarism and handle historical issues carefully. The spokesperson said Japan should take concrete actions to build trust with its Asian neighbors and the international community.
