Japan expresses a protest to China in connection with the next entry of Chinese ships into the zone near the Senkaku Islands

TOKYO, 8 August. / Corr. ITAR-TASS Igor Belyaev. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan today summoned the Chinese Ambassador to express "strong protest" in connection with the activity of the Chinese side near the Senkaku Islands / Diaoyu /. This is stated in the message of the Japanese Foreign Ministry.

The protest of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan is associated with the recent visits by the PRC marine police ships to the zone near the disputed islands, which Japan considers its territorial waters. So, on Wednesday, four Chinese ships entered the waters of the archipelago and are still there. “We demand the immediate withdrawal of all ships from this zone,” the head of the Japanese foreign affairs agency, Fumio Kisida, said at a press conference. “We also express our deepest indignation at the incident.”

Secretary General of the Cabinet of Ministers of Japan Yosychide Suga, in turn, noted that such "invasions of the territorial waters of Japan are completely unacceptable and deserve the deepest regret."

The territorial dispute around Senkaku / Diaoyu / between Japan and China escalated after Tokyo announced the purchase of islands from private owners in early September last year. After that, mass anti-Japanese demonstrations took place in the People's Republic of China, accompanied by pogroms. In the past few months, the sentry ships of China are almost constantly in the vicinity of Senkaku / Diaoyu / and occasionally make brief demonstrative visits to the coastal zone. Since the end of July, ships belonging to the new division of the PRC Marine Police, which was established on 23 in July this year, have already entered this area.

Took, and kicked out, what's the problem? Since your islands, then you don’t write pieces of paper, otherwise they cannot protect Senkaku, and give them the Kuril Islands as well.

[Edward72]

Maybe they would have kicked out, but the forces are not the same.

[Blackscorp]

Yes, this fuss in general resembles a scene from "The Golden Calf" by Ilf and Petrov, when Shura Balaganov and Panikovsky slapped each other with the words "Who are you," until Panikovsky realized that Balaganov was going to beat him now .. So it is here, China is Shura Balaganov, and Japan is Panikovsky ...

[Ruslan_F38]

Maybe they’ll fight? And China hangs on the Japs and brings them to life, otherwise they are already tired of their territorial claims.

Not a fact.

and bring them to life ...

Most likely someone will lose their feelings ...

[Deniska]

Yes, and the neighbor is scary :) I think the Japanese are afraid of the Chinese more than America and everyone else.

[serge-68-68]

This is the game. At one time, the Japanese played like this around the Kuriles. True, they did not risk sending warships, they sent "fishermen". Our military units chased them, and when they got tired of running, they sent bullets. They fly faster, and get tired less, and explain more clearly ...

[Dazdranagon]

"The last Japanese warning !!!"

[Alez]

The Japanese have left to make themselves hara-kiri, expressing the deepest indignation.

[domokl]

I wonder what organ of the human body the Chinese put to the protests of Japan? Disputed territories ... It was necessary to move the horn back in the 1945 year. Now the Chinese junks, accompanied by coast guard boats, are floating in Chinese territorial waters

[andrei332809]

the Chinese were upset ... 583 Japanese warning

[KG_patriot_last]

games games, kindergarten kindergarten - but the mentality is ...
and when it starts they will die in the millions ... and therefore the 583 warning. They know what all this can lead to.

Currently in service with the Chinese Air Force is: 120 strategic bombers H-6 - modernized clones of Tu-16 (10 more are used as refuellers); 99 Su-30; 76 Su-27; 140 J-11 (Chinese clone Su-27); 200 J-10 (Chinese clone of the Israeli Lavi fighter; 72 front-line bombers JH-7 (analogous to our Su-24), 180 J-8 (a fighter based on the Su-15 and MiG-23), 389 J-7 (a highly modernized copy of the MiG-21, currently being removed from service) and 240 Q-5 attack aircraft (modernization of the MiG-19 for strikes against ground targets. That is, about 1516 combat aircraft. There are also 12 AWACS aircraft: 5 KJ-2000 on the basis of the Il-76 and 7 KJ-200 on the basis of the Chinese copy of the An-12-Y-8. About 230 more combat aircraft (14 N-6, 23 Su-30, 20 J-10, 24 J-11, 35 JN -7, 48 J-8, 35 J-7, 30 Q-5) and 7 AWACS KJ-200 planes have the naval aviation of China.The most probable enemy of the so-called "rebellious province" Taiwan has 144 American F -16 (early modification Block 20), 55 French Mirage-2000, 126 Chin-Kuo fighters and 68 American F-5 Tiger, that is, about 393 combat aircraft and 6 AWACS aircraft. (excluding strategic bombers, which Taiwan does not have, and taking into account the naval aviation of China) is combat aircraft - 4, 1: 1, in favor of China (1612 in China, 393 in Taiwan), AWACS aircraft - 3, 2: 1 in favor of China (19 for China, 6 for Taiwan) Another potential enemy Japan is armed with 198 F-15 fighter-interceptors, assembled under license, 75 F-2 fighters (Japanese version of the American F-16, the latest modification of Block 52) and 80 American F-4 Phantom, which are being replaced by F-15, and it is planned to finally replace the F-35 Lightning. There are also 17 AWACS aircraft: 4 Boeing E-767, 13 E-2C Hawkeye. The ratio of forces is 4,6: 1, in favor of China (1612 for China, 353 for Japan), with an approximate equality of AWACS aircraft (19 for China, 17 for Japan). Vietnam, with which China has not yet settled territorial disputes over the Spratly archipelago, is armed with about 237 combat aircraft: 24 Su-30, 13 Su-27, about 60 Su-22 fighter-bombers, 140 MiG-21 ; Vietnam does not have AWACS aircraft. The power ratio is 6,8: 1, in favor of China. That is, China has achieved a fourfold superiority, and even sevenfold over Vietnam, over all its possible opponents. And the Su-35, which China plans to buy, is required to achieve absolute quality superiority. I am not considering India yet, since the country has nuclear weapons. Yours faithfully!

[alone]

and besides nuclear weapons, the high accident rate of the Indian Air Force does not allow a real assessment of the situation

[Kibalchish]

All this aviation power does not matter much. Neither to Japan, nor to the disputed islands, they will not be able to fly. Only one way, like a kamikaze. The Japanese, from Okinawa, fly much closer.
Therefore, China is developing carrier-based aviation.

[sasha.28blaga]

I wonder what kind of place Japan protests if China even more often began to appear off the coast of the disputed islands.

[Kibalchish]

The Chinese can swim around as they like. The status of the islands will not change. And they decide to land ... then we’ll see who and whom.

[alone]

I imagine the landing of small Chinese groups of 100 thousand soldiers on these islands)))

[Kibalchish]

China does not have many landing ships. There are essentially only three large ones.

[La hire]

Interestingly, and the Japanese Navy boats go there? Simply, if you go, then there is a chance to look at a small mess between the Chinese and Japanese, which could well develop into a conflict comparable to Damansky (if the Chinese leadership has political will, of course).

[Kibalchish]

They go. Pay attention to the inscription on board the distant ship.

[knn54]

In 1945, Japan lost the war and Senkaku, along with Okinawa, were under US jurisdiction. But in 1971, the United States returned Okinawa to Japan, giving it to Senkaku. THEN, PRC, like Taiwan, have not expressed any protests against the inclusion of these islands in the number of regions under the control of the United States ACCORDING to Article III of the San Francisco Peace Treaty.
In 1992, the PRC declared this territory “original Chinese” based on the provisions of the Cairo Declaration of 1943, which deprived Japan of all its conquered territories.
And why is Taiwan silent ...
PS If the case is referred to the international court of justice of the United Nations - the patrimony of the United States, the PRC will definitely fly by.

[Arabist]

Japan seems to have already announced that it will at least defend the disputed territories on its own. Where could she go without Uncle Sam against China and Russia.

[alone]

Do you think Russia will go to war for China?))) and you did not ask yourself what the hell the Chinese are holding huge forces near the Russian border?

[Arabist]

If you are this to me, then I did not write this. And something huge forces did not notice. Show?

[alone]

so these huge forces under the agreement are located 100km from the border. go 100 km deep and you will see that powerful grouping of the Chinese army, starting from tank divisions and ending with parts of the 31st artillery corps (these are the Chinese Strategic Missile Forces). but read this

[Arabist]

Did you see it yourself when crossing the Russian-Chinese border? The Chinese Strategic Rocket Forces is the 2nd artillery corps, not the 31st artillery corps. Have you read Khramachikhin?
