CCTV News: This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. April 29 is the 28th anniversary of the entry into force of the Convention on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. Japan's abandonment of chemical weapons in China is an important example of Japanese militarism's crimes against the Chinese people, and handling Japanese chemical weapons is an important task under the framework of the Convention. At the regular press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, spokesperson Guo Jiakun introduced the progress of handling Japanese chemical weapons related to the handling of Japanese chemical weapons, and urged Japanese side to fulfill their obligations and speed up the handling of Japanese chemical weapons.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said that eliminating the poisoning of chemical weapons in Japan is an unshirkable historical, political and legal responsibility of Japan, and it is also an international obligation stipulated in the Convention on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. With the strong assistance of China, Japan has so far excavated and recovered about 150,000 Japanese chemical weapons and destroyed about 120,000, but overall, the process of handling Japanese chemical weapons is still seriously lagging behind. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, and the 28th anniversary of the entry into force of the Convention on the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. To this day, there are still chemical weapons left in China. China urges Japan to fulfill its obligations and fulfill its responsibilities, comprehensively, fully and accurately implement the Japanese chemical weapons destruction plan after 2022, accelerate the process of handling Japanese chemical weapons, return the Chinese people to security and pure land as soon as possible, and return the international community to justice.
