Japan's speculation on Diaoyu buoys rejected

Chinese buoys placed near the Diaoyu Islands are intended to monitor ocean conditions and should not be "played up," a Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said yesterday.

Japan had speculated that the buoys were intended to detect the movement of submarines.

Hua Chunying said they were set there to carry out maritime weather observations. "I think it does not deserve to be disputed or played up," she said.
