Jiang Lue, spokesperson for the China Coast Guard(CCG), stated that on July 7, Japanese fishing boat Zuihou Maru intruded into the territorial waters of China's Chiwei Yu. CCG vessels took necessary measures to warn and expel it in accordance with the law. Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated islands are China's inherent territory. We urge the Japanese side to immediately stop all rights-violation and provocative acts in relevant waters. The CCG will continue to conduct rights-protection and law-enforcement operations in the territorial waters of Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated islands, and safeguard China’s territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
