April 10, 2012 Huangyan Island incident
On April 10, 2012 (March 20, 2012 lunar calendar), China and the Philippines confronted Huangyan Island. On April 10, 2012, the Philippine Navy attempted to capture Chinese fishermen near Huangyan Island in the South China Sea, but was stopped by Chinese maritime surveillance vessels. The two sides then confronted each other. As of May 10, 2012, the China-Philippines Huangyan Island has been facing off for a month. Huangyan Island, located at 15 ° 07 ′ north latitude, 117 ° 51 ′ east longitude, is about 100 nautical miles from Subic Port in the Philippines. Huangyan Island is China's inherent territory, and the waters off Huangyan Island are traditional fishing grounds for Chinese fishermen. In the face of the "rise" of the Chinese mainland economy, taking advantage of the shift of the US global strategic center of gravity to the Western Pacific, efforts have been made to build a so-called "first island chain" aimed at blocking the Chinese mainland. Recently, the countries around the South China Sea have been making frequent moves to provoke territorial disputes in the South China Sea. In fact, they rely on the US forces behind them to seize and divide up the territory and its affiliated oil, natural gas and other strategic economic resources while China has not yet risen. Among the Nansha Islands claimed by China, Vietnam has occupied the most (29) and the Philippines has moved the most frequently, while the Chinese mainland actually controls only 7 islands and reefs. On April 8, 2012, the Philippine Navy illegally entered Huangyan Island and arrested our country's fishermen with guns and detained fishing boats. Immediately, we sent ships to the area and have since launched a naval confrontation with the Philippine Navy. When will China's hardliners manifest?
