You may wish for that but you’re unlikely to get.
China is remarkably insular - they’re just not that interested in other countries and people and any interest is only in relation to what can serve China’s interests.
They’re big. We’re small. We’ve got no leverage apart from having a few things that they like and need.
We’re just nobodies of no consequence in their eyes.
Japan for example isn’t important to them, and a desire for some revenge for past crimes would be a priority for other races and nations but does China care ?
Nup. Or they’re keeping their cards close to the chest. But I doubt that.

China just wants to be rich and happy on their terms and if other nations find some aspects of China reprehensible well that’s not China's problem.
