Describing North Korea’s latest missile test as «an act of provocation,» Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said that the missile testing was deliberately timed to coincide with a meeting between U. S. President Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
According to the available information , the minister did not state when and how Japan will seek to lodge a protest with China. As per the diplomatic norm, the Japanese government may lodge a protest with the Chinese embassy in Tokyo.
The Chinese government is yet to issue any statement on the Japanese minister’s comments.
