Japan protested to China on 25 Aug 2025 about China’s work on a gas field in the East China Sea. Japan says the area is disputed and objects to China’s installation there. The protest was sent after Japan found China developing gas resources in waters Japan claims. Both countries have long argued over islands and sea areas in this region. Japan wants China to stop activities that may affect peace and stability. This event adds to ongoing tensions between the two nations over territorial claims in the East China Sea.
