According to Kyodo News, multiple sources revealed on the 17th that Hashimoto Gaku, Vice Chairman of the Japan Association for Promoting International Trade and former Japanese Vice Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare, will visit Beijing in late June to attend the China International Supply Chain Promotion Expo (Chain Expo) held in Beijing from the 22nd to the 26th, in place of the late Chairman Kono Yohei.
Sino-Japanese relations have been in a stalemate for over half a year since Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi made the "Taiwan contingency" remarks in November 2025. Therefore, Hashimoto Gaku's trip to Beijing to attend the Chain Expo has attracted external attention.
According to the report, the Japan Association for Promoting International Trade originally planned for Chairman Kono Yohei to lead a delegation to visit China and attend the Chain Expo. However, Kono Yohei passed away on the 8th, and the Japanese side subsequently narrowed down the scope of participants, with Hashimoto Gaku leading relevant executives to visit China.
The report mentioned that Hashimoto Gaku's father is the late Japanese Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto, who also served as the Chairman of the Japan Association for Promoting International Trade. (Editor: Liu Xianghua)
