China said Monday it will not hold dialogue with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe until he acknowledges "mistakes he has been making one after another" on bilateral issues since taking office a year ago.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang said Abe "has fully exposed his hypocrisy" in his claims of attaching great importance to relations with China and holding dialogue with Chinese leaders, most recently, by visiting the war-linked Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo last week."In fact, Abe himself closes the door of dialogue with Chinese leaders. Chinese people do not welcome him," Qin told a regular news conference. "What Abe should do now is admit his mistakes."
