China has picture of Japanese jet while Japanese encounter is just fake!
BEIJING (AP) — China and Japan are blaming each other for a close encounter between military jets over the East China Sea.
China's Defense Ministry said Thursday that Japanese F-15 fighters followed a Chinese TU-154 plane on a regular patrol Wednesday morning and got as close as 30 meters (100 feet). It released two videos on its website purporting to show the incident, which it said had "seriously affected" the safety of the Chinese plane.
Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga denied on Thursday that Japanese aircraft had approached a Chinese plane and said Japan stood by the version it gave on Wednesday — that two Chinese SU27 fighters had posed a danger to Japanese aircraft by flying near them. "Chinese criticism is irrelevant," Suga said.
On Wednesday, Japan lodged a diplomatic protest with Beijing over the incident and on Thursday its Foreign Ministry summoned China's ambassador.
In response, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told reporters, "China strongly opposes and protests Japan's act of ignoring the facts, shifting the blame onto the victim, aggressive slandering and hyping the so-called China threat."
Tensions between the two Asian rivals have worsened in recent years over a group of uninhabited islands in the East China Sea called Senkaku in Japanese and Diaoyu in Chinese. Japan controls the islands but China also claims them.
The two countries have increased patrols by ships and military planes to press their conflicting territorial claims. They had a similar incident on May 24.
"The latest incident occurred despite our strong protest and request for preventive efforts following the previous incident, and the government of Japan takes it extremely seriously," Japanese Deputy Foreign Minister Akitaka Saiki told reporters after meeting with Ambassador Cheng Yonghua.
The United States, which is allied to Japan, avoided taking sides in the squabble between the Asian powers, although it reiterated its concerns over an air defense information zone that China declared over the East China Sea late last year.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Thursday she had not seen the video. She urged all states to ensure the safety of aircraft in flight, and said the reports reinforced the need for China and its neighbors to develop crisis management procedures to avoid miscalculations or further incidents at sea or in air.

中日軍機短兵相接 雙方互嗆聲
就11日中日兩國軍機再次異常接近一事，日本常務副外相齋木昭隆12日緊急召見中國駐日大使程永華，提出「嚴重抗議」。對此，中國國防部除12日立即公開相關視頻和照片外，其新聞發言人耿雁生也批評回擊日本，是在「炒作」、惡人先告狀。
據共同社報導，齋木昭隆12日上午在外務省召見程永華時表示，中日軍機異常接近「此舉可能會引發偶發性事故。日方強烈要求防止此類事件再度發生。日本政府認為此事很嚴重」。
耿雁生斥日方炒作
12日的日本參議院外交防衛委員會會議上，防衛省運用企劃局長中島明彥指出，5月24日在同一空域與海上自衛隊和航空自衛隊飛機異常接近的，是同一架中國軍機。但是，6月11日和5月24日異常接近的中國軍機機身編號不同，可能是不同的飛機。
另外，日本內閣官房長官菅義偉在記者會上稱，「極其遺憾，這是難以容忍的行為」。
齋木昭隆再次要求希望構築中日防衛部門間的聯絡機制，以避免不測事態發生。而後，程永華向媒體表示，「這與中國調查的事實不符，中方不能接受日方抗議，而是向日本提出了抗議」。
另一方面，耿雁生則批評日方是在炒作、渲染中國軍事威脅。他說，「這是日方繼5月24日妄稱我軍機異常接近日機後，再次進行的無端指責，旨在進一步欺騙國際社會，抹黑我國我軍形象。日方這種惡劣做法罔顧事實，顛倒黑白，純屬惡人先告狀」。
美籲建危機管理框架
中國外交部發言人華春瑩12日表示，日方罔顧事實，大肆造謠誣衊和公開炒作，渲染所謂「中國威脅」，中方對此表示堅決反對，並提出強烈抗議。華春瑩並說，聯繫到近期日方一系列修憲擴軍行動，大肆渲染地區威脅，製造緊張對立，我們有必要對日方真實意圖保持清醒和高度警惕。
對此，美國國務院發言人莎琪於美東時間11日表示，相關國家應構築危機管理框架，以避免在海上和空中發生偶發性事件。
