As a word of kind advice, try to understand what I am saying before you sprout off nonsense. It really helps if you actually pay attention to what I said. Because right now, you come across as a know-nothing. Alright?Original Post Deleted
The Japanese government took the least worst opinion from their perspective. It doesn't mean the Chinese will accept that. Is that so hard for you to understand? I guess it is.
Yes, the Japanese would certainly have enrage the Chinese more if they station troops or construct buildings on the island. But the Chinese don't see it that way. They may see it simply as a creeping change of status quo which is unacceptable all the same. It matters little if there is no real substantive change from the Japanese's perspective. What matters is how the Chinese interpret this. And they certainly did'nt see it as the least worst opinion with no change. That's what matters in the end. Now what the sender think is the least worst option, but whether recipient think as well. Like I said, breakdown in communication. The Japanese did'nt realize what the Chinese interpretation will be. And the Chinese did'nt understand or could not accept what the "least worst option" from the Japanese side is.
Now, before you respond, read my post carefully. Word by word.
