Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi plans to visit Japan next week for meetings with senior Japanese officials during, which they are likely to focus on ways to resume reciprocal business travel, Japanese government sources said Wednesday.
During Wang's two-day visit from Tuesday, Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi is expected to demand that Beijing stop intruding into Japanese territorial waters around the Senkaku Islands in an attempt to undermine Tokyo's control over the group of islets in the East China Sea, according to the sources.
Wang, who doubles as state councilor, plans to have a separate meeting with Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, they said.
