TOKYO (Kyodo) -- Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa said Monday she will meet Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly in New York this week.

In the wake of the stabbing death of a Japanese schoolboy in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen last week, Japan will demand China clarify the facts and provide detailed information about the case, Kamikawa told reporters before leaving Haneda airport.
