Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Chinese President Xi Jinping last met on the sidelines of the 2025 APEC summit in South Korea, where they reaffirmed pursuit of a mutually beneficial strategic relationship while acknowledging persistent differences over maritime activities in the East China Sea, export controls, and regional security. Bilateral ties have remained tense since late 2025, prompting a series of lower-level Japanese delegations and business visits to Beijing in September 2026 aimed at easing frictions ahead of China’s hosting of the November 2026 APEC summit in Shenzhen. Analysts note that meaningful progress on high-level engagement depends on clearer signals from Tokyo, with the upcoming APEC gathering serving as the most immediate potential venue for renewed leader-level talks amid ongoing procedural and substantive hurdles.
