US and Japanese foreign and defense ministers warned Tuesday on China, saying they had renewed a commitment to opposing “coercion and destabilizing behavior,” during talks in Tokyo.

“The United States and Japan acknowledged that China’s behavior, where inconsistent with the existing international order, presents political, economic, military and technological challenges,” they said in a joint statement.

“The ministers committed to opposing coercion and destabilizing behavior towards others in the region,” they added.
