At the Munich Security Conference on February 14, 2026, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi drew a sharp contrast between Germany and Japan regarding their post-war historical attitudes. He noted that while Germany comprehensively reckoned with its Nazi past and legislated against Nazi propaganda, Japan has taken a fundamentally different path.
Class-A war criminals remain enshrined in a shrine, visited reverently by Japanese political figures. Wang Yi stated that this reflects Japan's unabandoned ambition to invade and colonize Taiwan, proving that Japanese militarism is a lingering evil spirit—a recent history that serves as a warning.
