Sensitive Position of Interception: Fishing Vessel Fuyang No. 266 May Trigger Taiwan-Japan Diaoyu Islands Sovereignty Dispute

Reported about 1 year ago

On July 5, 2024, in the early morning in Keelung, the fishing vessel Fuyang No. 266 was intercepted and inspected by a Japanese official vessel near Pengjia Islet, leading to the detention of the captain and chief engineer. This incident has raised concerns as the interception location, if extended from the Diaoyu Islands, falls within Taiwan's claimed economic exclusive zone, potentially reigniting the long-standing sovereignty dispute between Taiwan and Japan over the Diaoyu Islands.
