"We require the Japanese side to stop all moves that undermine China's territorial sovereignty and strive to properly manage and seek solutions to the problems through dialogues and negotiations," Qin said.
China Saturday established the East China Sea Air Defence Identification Zone and announced aircraft identification rules for entering the area.
According to BBC, the demarcated air defence identification zone covers the controversial islands that are also claimed by Japan.
The row over these islands, called Diaoyu in China and Senkaku in Japan, has left ties between Beijing and Tokyo highly tense.
The islands, also claimed by Taiwan, potentially contain oil deposits.
