Global Times: China has decided to take countermeasures against Keiji Furuya, a member of the House of Representatives of Japan’s National Diet, according to a decision released by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on Monday.
According to the ministry, Keiji Furuya has despite China’s strong opposition, repeatedly visited Taiwan region and colluded with “Taiwan independence” separatist forces, seriously violating the one-China principle and the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan, crudely interfering in China’s internal affairs and gravely undermining China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. In accordance with Articles 3, 4, 6, 9 and 15 of China’s anti-foreign sanctions law, China has decided to impose countermeasures against Furuya.
The countermeasures include freezing any movable and immovable property and other types of assets he holds within China, prohibiting organizations and individuals within China from engaging in transactions, cooperation or other activities with him, and denying him a visa and entry into China, including the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions. The decision will take effect on March 30, 2026, the ministry said.
