China plays war memory card to enlist UK in territorial dispute against Japan

China’s Ambassador to London, Liu Xiaoming

Sibling blog anglojapanalliance.com draws attention to a letter from  China’s Ambassador in London to the Telegraph newspaper, which links China’s dispute with Japan in the East China Sea to the theme of Japan’s war record and PM Abe’s position on WWII and recent visit to Yasukuni shrine. Interesting to watch if and how London reacts.
