Summary

Machine summary

CCG spokesperson Jiang Lue announced Tuesday that Coast Guard vessels warned and expelled the Japanese fishing boat Shishi from waters around Diaoyu Dao, framing the operation as lawful rights-protection (维权) enforcement. The incident fits the CCG's established pattern of publicized expulsions around the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands, which Beijing uses to assert jurisdictional presence; the spokesperson's explicit call for Japan to cease 'rights-violation and provocative acts' documents the standard escalatory language accompanying these operations. What the report does not establish is which specific CCG vessels were involved or how long the Shishi remained in the contested waters before expulsion.

BEIJING, May 26 (Xinhua) -- China Coast Guard (CCG) on Tuesday took necessary measures to warn and expel Japanese fishing boat Shishi, which intruded into the territorial waters of China's Diaoyu Dao, said CCG spokesperson Jiang Lue. Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated islands are China's inherent territory, Jiang reiterated, noting that CCG vessels' operations were in accordance with the law. "We urge the Japanese side to immediately stop all rights-violation and provocative acts in relevant waters," the spokesperson stressed. The CCG will continue to conduct rights protection and law enforcement operations in the waters around Diaoyu Dao, and resolutely safeguard China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, Jiang added.
