A serving Chinese general has been saying he thinks Japan ought to be made to “withdraw” from Okinawa, in favour of the peace-loving Chinese.

一位在任的中国将军表示，他认为..应该从冲绳岛“撤走”，留给热爱和平的中国人。

According to media reportsnational defence research institute gave a radio interview in which he demanded the “return” of Okinawa to China:

据媒体报道（新闻链接），一位中国将军在接受一家国防研究所的电台采访时，要求将冲绳岛“归还”中国：

“We must demonstrate our resolve over the Diaoyu Islands to Japan with actions, but there is a wider issue – we should formally raise the issue of the return of Okinawa [to China].

Okinawa used to be a kingdom called Ryukyu, but in 1879 Japan forcibly occupied it. They had to abandon the Chinese calendar and Chinese characters.

Of course, Japan should withdraw from Ryukyu.”

“我们必须用行动向..证明我们对..的决心，但是更大的问题是——我们应该正式提出冲绳岛的归还（中国）问题。
冲绳岛以前是一个叫琉球的王国，但是1879年..强占了它。岛上的人被迫废除了中国历法和汉字。
..也许已经占领了它，但我们需要密切关注这个问题。
……
当然，..应该从琉球岛上撤离。”

Prior to being formally annexed by Japan, Ryukyu had enjoyed various tributary relationships with both Japan and China, usually finding itself under the de facto control of the nearby Shimazu clan in Kyushu.

在被..正式吞并之前，琉球一直对中国和..有各种朝贡关系，基本上是在琉球附近的九州岛津家族的实际掌控之下。

Recent years have seen increasing amounts of revanchist rhetoric from Chinese sources demanding the “return” or “independence” of the islands, but so far no official demand has been made for them, and none seems immediately likely given they are still bristling with American firepower – although China is already trying to pry parts of their “sacred territory” from the chain. （自媒体www.jj00.com）

近年来中国方面开始有越来越多的收复失地的言论，要求“归还”或“独立”一些岛屿，但是目前没有关于这些的官方要求，似乎也不会在近期被提出。那里依然布满了美军的火力——尽管中国已经试图在岛链中探索他们部分“神圣的领土”了。
