China said Thursday it will not grant Japan's request to take down the English and Japanese versions of its Diaoyu Islands website, according to foreign ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying.

"China does not accept ­Japan's unreasonable request, and once again urges Japan to look squarely at the history, respect facts and make constructive efforts to properly settle the issue," Hua told a daily news ­briefing.

"Historical and legal evidence show that the Diaoyu Islands and their affiliated islands are China's inalienable territory … The objective fact will not change whether the Japan is or is not willing to accept it."
