**Ongoing diplomatic strains between China and Japan, rooted in Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s November 2025 remarks on a potential Taiwan contingency triggering collective self-defense obligations, continue to shape prospects for a bilateral leaders’ meeting.** Beijing responded with export controls on rare earths and other measures, demands for retraction, and limited high-level contact after the pair’s initial October 31, 2025, APEC sidelines discussion in South Korea. As of early September 2026, no formal summit has occurred since, though bipartisan Japanese lawmakers visited Beijing in August 2026 to explore improved ties. The November 2026 APEC Leaders’ Meeting in Shenzhen, hosted by Xi Jinping, stands as the most immediate scheduled opportunity for engagement, with Japan seeking a bilateral session while China has signaled expectations for prior policy adjustments. Trader assessments reflect these persistent political and security frictions alongside limited back-channel efforts.
