Sanae Takaichi, Japan's prime minister since late 2025, met Chinese President Xi Jinping once on the APEC sidelines in October 2025, where both sides endorsed stable, mutually beneficial ties and discussed economic security issues. Relations have since deteriorated amid Japan's accelerated defense spending, constitutional revision debates, and Takaichi's remarks on Taiwan, prompting Xi to sharply criticize Tokyo's "remilitarization" during a May 2026 summit with the U.S. president. No further bilateral encounter occurred at the November 2025 G20. With the November 2026 APEC summit approaching, Japanese officials have explored another sideline meeting, yet analysts note low prospects given persistent frictions and China's foreign-policy priorities ahead of its 2027 party congress. Trader assessments hinge on whether diplomatic channels can overcome these security and regional disputes in time.
