In a significant escalation of regional tensions, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has issued a stern warning to Japan, accusing its military actions of being 'completely unacceptable.' The diplomatic clash follows accusations by Japan that Chinese fighter jets threatened Japanese aircraft by locking radar on them.

The friction comes amid heightened rhetoric over Taiwan, a territory Japan once colonized. The recent exchanges reflect longstanding grudge matches between both nations, with Wang urging Japan to remember its war history as this year marks the 80th anniversary of the end of World War Two.

The situation has further deteriorated after Japan's Prime Minister raised concerns that any Chinese aggression towards Taiwan could impact Japan's national security. The Taiwan issue remains a contentious topic, with its government rejecting China's claims of sovereignty.
