Shii comments on 100th founding anniversary of China’s communist party
|
Asked by the press, Japanese Communist Party Chair Shii Kazuo on July 1 commented on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.
Shii in his comment pointed out, “China’s hegemonic acts in the East China Sea and South China Sea as well as its human-rights suppression in Hong Kong and the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region are alien to socialism. The Chinese party conducting such acts is not worthy of calling itself as a ‘communist party’.” He said, “The need is for the international community to urge China to comply with international law.”
Meanwhile on this day, in response to an inquiry from the media, the JCP Press Liaison Office said that the party did not send a congratulatory message to China on the 100th founding anniversary of the CPC.
