Japan's Self-Defense Forces previously explained that the Japanese ship "Suzuki" entered Chinese territorial waters, stating that the boundary line switch on the electronic map was not turned on. It implies that Japan is trying to send its warships to China's coastal areas, skimming along the maritime boundary. In this peaceful era, relations between countries are relatively less tense. However, when foreign warships and aircraft intrude into airspace and territorial waters, it becomes a serious diplomatic incident. Usually, they do not open fire directly to shoot down or sink them; instead, they issue warnings and then protest through diplomatic channels. However, if they come again, it may lead to being shot down or sunk. The "Suzuki" destroyer is an incident of a Japanese Self-Defense Forces officer acting independently. However, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces cannot openly say so. They can only find a technical excuse. According to the Chinese government's statement, the territorial sea of mainland China and its coastal islands is defined by straight lines connecting the baselines on the mainland coast and the outer edges of the islands on the coastal area, extending 12 nautical miles from the baseline. If the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's "Suzuki" destroyer entered the Chinese territorial waters, it indicates that its position is just over 20 kilometers away from the Chinese coastline. Even closer, one could visually see the coast. At this point, it is necessary to use shell warnings. If that does not work, it is indeed necessary to open fire and sink it. The Japanese naval vessels have not entered Chinese territorial waters for eighty years. Except for this time, the closest the Japanese warships have ever approached Chinese territorial waters was in 1996, 80 kilometers away from Shanghai. Now, looking at the captain of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's "Suzuki" missile destroyer, he is taking the lives of 100 Japanese Self-Defense Forces personnel as a bet to invade Chinese territorial waters, planning to provoke a conflict. If the new captain of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force's "Suzuki" destroyer still cannot read the nautical chart, we will send it off with one cannon shot, saving us from the trouble of "punishment."
