China's Consul General in Osaka, Xue Jian, resumed social media activity after a three-week hiatus. He had previously posted a violent remark regarding remarks made by Japan's Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications, Sanae Takaichi. The resumption involved reposting content from the Chinese Ambassador to Japan, Wu Jianghao, which criticized Japan's stance on Taiwan and historical declarations. This action has drawn further criticism, with many demanding an apology for the earlier "violent remark." The Osaka Prefectural Assembly had unanimously passed a resolution calling for an apology from Consul General Xue Jian. His recent activity has been limited to reposts, with no personal statements or apologies offered.
