According to the report, Japan said on Thursday the Diaoyu Islands were a part of Japan and the US would be obligated according to the treaty to engage in military conflicts between China and Japan over the island should they occur.
Ma said China has indisputable sovereignty over the Diaoyu Island and adjacent islets, which have been an inalienable part of China's territory since ancient times.
