Three ships have penetrated Chinese officials Friday morning in an area regarded by Japan as its territorial waters, off disputed islands in the East China Sea.
Tension around the Senkaku islands (by name Japanese) or Diaoyu (and was named the Chinese ) do not always land. Since the "nationalization" by the Japan of these pieces of land long disputed between the two countries (that is to say, they were bought by their private owner Tokyo, a Japanese family), the Chinese navy regularly emonstrations sending power of vessels in this area. That the recent electoral victory of the Conservatives in Japan has not helped ease. Once again this Friday, three Chinese officials ships entered the waters of the disputed islands, welcoming them as the next political change in Japan. I must say that the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), the Conservative Shinzo Abe, who will be appointed Prime Minister on December 26, said on Monday that Japanese sovereignty over these islands was "not negotiable". With the statements of the future Prime Minister of Japan, known for being strong in foreign policy, China had openly called "very concerned" about "the direction that Japan could take" under the leadership of Abe. Last Thursday, the crisis had escalated with the overview of this archipelago by Chinese maritime surveillance aircraft, denounced by Japan as the first violation of its airspace by Chinese history. Japanese authorities were immediately scrambled F-15 fighters.
