  1. I mean Chinese fishing vessels are often being caught by SK authorities for intruding and illegally fishing inside SK EEZ. They have also been constantly intruding Taiwan EEZ for illegal fishing too🤷

    Not their first rodeo in the area

  2. a lot of people/media keep referencing the 2010 incident but that was in disputed waters (near senkaku/diaoyu islands). this was in the undisputed Japanese EEZ. things can still blow up due to current tensions ofc

  3. Intruding into other country’s maritime territories thinking they are mighty chinese so other countries won’t dare do anything against them, lol

    Someone has to teach these bums a lesson, like what the Argentinians did. I also heard the Korean coast guards upped their antics on encountering these illegals.

  4. This has been going on for decades, but Takaichi doesn’t seen to have the guile or wisdom to deal with China in a non-provocative way. China is looking for a reason to go all China on someone and Takaichi with that kuchisake onna smile seems to be heading straight for it.

  5. I mean, what can or will China do right? Complain? Burn more money with their naval exercises that amount to nothing? Severely admonish Japan in UN? lol
