Takaichi to urge UN to drop 'enemy state' clause on Japan and Germany

Original: Takaichi will call for the United Nations to remove references in its charter that refer to Japan and Germany as “enemy

Japanese leader Takaichi will call on the United Nations to remove references in its charter that label Japan and Germany as enemy states, a Cold War-era designation still written into the UN Charter. The move comes after China recently invoked that classification to criticise Tokyo amid a sharp deterioration in bilateral relations, turning a largely symbolic legal relic into a point of diplomatic friction between the two Asian powers.

Why now: China has been invoking the enemy-state clause to attack Japan as ties between the two countries break down.
