Japanese militarism is the common enemy of people all over the world, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Friday.

Guo also said that China will work with all peace-loving countries and people to safeguard the outcomes of the World War Two victory and the post-war international order.

"We urge the Japanese side to do deep soul-searching on history, earnestly draw lessons from it, completely sever ties with militarism, and take concrete actions to eliminate the residual influence," Guo told a daily press briefing.
