英闻天下——142 Japan's Former Leader Visits Nanjing Massacre Museum
英语课
Former Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama has paid a visit to the Nanjing Massacre 1 Museum during a trip to Nanjing, Jiangsu province.
It's part of Hatoyama's four-day personal visit to China amid Sino-Japanese tensions over the Diaoyu Islands.
"I have to visit Beijing and Nanjing during this hard time of our relations. I hope Chinese people can understand that Japanese politicians have different opinions towards China. I sincerely wish that Sino-Japanese ties can get back to the past when we cherish communication and cooperation."
Earlier this week, Hatoyama met with China-Japan Friendship Association Chairman Tang Jiaxuan and China's top political advisor 2 Jia Qinglin.
The disputes over the Diaoyu islands dominated the talks and both sides called for dialogue to resolve the current tensions.
However, observers say the anti-China rhetoric 3 among Japanese ring-wing politicians might not die down ahead of the upcoming upper house election in July.
Liu Jiangyong is an international studies specialist with Qinghua University:
"If the ruling Liberal Democratic Party gets two-thirds of the seats in both the lower and upper house. It could push for amending 4 the constitution, which could mean more uncertainties 5 ahead. "
Yukio Hatoyama, former leader of the current opposition 6 Democratic Party of Japan, was invited by the Chinese people's Institute of Foreign Affairs.
