Shima City passes a fishing-related ordinance, opposition: Sino-Japanese relations may further deteriorate!

On January 25, Kyodo News reported: "On Friday, the Okinawa Ishigaki City Council passed a new regulation on the Diaoyu Islands with 14 votes in favor and 7 against, strengthening management of the area for environmental protection and navigation safety. The regulation came into effect immediately. Previously, the mayor of Ishigaki had requested landing to conduct environmental surveys, and Prime Minister Hayashi Asako claimed that the Diaoyu Islands are Japan's 'inherent territory.' The opposition criticized this move, saying it could worsen Sino-Japanese relations."

[Clever] Japan illegally seized the islands in the First Sino-Japanese War, and now it is using environmental issues as an excuse to "cut the sausage," with Ishigaki City's clumsy performance being a new trick by right-wing forces to seize the Diaoyu Islands. From deliberately introducing goats to destroy the ecology to fabricating regulations to provoke, from local antics to central endorsement, Japan's "local provocation, central support" strategy aims to create a de facto jurisdiction. History has already determined that the Diaoyu Islands belong to China, with the Cairo Declaration as irrefutable evidence. Japan's defiance of legal principles is just an attempt to show its presence amid the Sino-US rivalry. Its actions against the tide will ultimately end in failure!
