gPicking Chestnuts out of the Fireh
Tsai Ing-wenfs personal visit to Japan occupies an extremely delicate position in Japanese diplomacy. As the expression gpicking chestnuts out of the fireh suggests, Japan is compelled to strike a difficult balance between maintaining relations with Taiwan and avoiding a deterioration of its diplomatic ties with China.
The Political Significance of Tsai Ing-wenfs Visit to Japan
Tsai Ing-wen visited the Tokyo metropolitan area and its surroundings from September 9 to 12, 2025, as a private traveler. This marks her first overseas trip since stepping down as president in May 2024, carrying symbolic significance. Although ostensibly a private visit, her status as a former president makes it impossible to ignore the political implications.
During her tenure, Tsai strengthened Taiwanfs pro-independence stance and cooled relations with China. Her Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has consistently upheld Taiwan independence as a party principle and has refused to accept the gOne Chinah policy. Against this backdrop, a visit by such a figure to Japan is a situation that China cannot overlook.
Chinafs Strong Reaction
Chinafs Ministry of Foreign Affairs labeled Tsai as a gpro-independenceh figure and strongly opposed her gunauthorized visit,h issuing stern warnings and diplomatic communications to Japan. This response was anticipated and demonstrates the consistency of Chinafs Taiwan policy.
China regards Taiwan as an ginseparable part of its territoryh and has consistently taken a hardline stance against moves to enhance Taiwanfs international status or independence. Under Tsaifs administration, Taiwan strengthened ties with the United States and sought a greater presence in the international community, heightening Chinafs vigilance. Even as a former president, Tsaifs overseas visit is seen as potentially elevating Taiwanfs international profile, an action China cannot tolerate.
Japanfs Delicate Position
Since normalizing diplomatic relations with the Peoplefs Republic of China (PRC), Japan has consistently expressed respect for the gOne Chinah principle. The 1972 Japan-China Joint Communique recognized the PRC as the sole legal government of China and stated that Japan gfully understands and respectsh Chinafs position that Taiwan is an inseparable part of its territory.
At the same time, Japan maintains practical relations with Taiwan. Economically, Taiwan is a crucial partner, with close cooperation in technology and trade, particularly in the semiconductor industry. Strategically, peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are directly linked to Japanfs national security.
