Similarly, many African states now seem to be leaning heavily toward China in its dispute with Taiwan. When Japan’s government tried to become a permanent member of the UN Security Council, few African countries backed its bid, despite receiving economic aid for decades.
同样，在同台湾的争执中，许多非洲国家现在愈发倾向中国。尽管几十年来非洲国家从日本接受经济援助，但是当日本政府试图成为联合国安理会常任理事国时，支持日本的非洲国家寥寥无几。
