According to the information released by the China Coast Guard, on February 22, a Philippine Fisheries and Fisheries Bureau 3002 ship that illegally intruded into the waters of China's Huangyan Island was driven away by the Chinese Coast Guard in accordance with the law. The China Coast Guard has taken measures to safeguard China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests in accordance with the law, and its on-site operations are professional and restrained, which is beyond reproach.
Scarborough Shoal is China's inherent territory, and this is undisputed. However, in recent years, the Philippines and other countries have continued to create incidents in an attempt to infringe on China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests. The illegal intrusion of the Philippine Bureau of Fisheries and Fisheries 3002 into the waters of China's Scarborough Shoal is undoubtedly a serious provocation to China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
As China's maritime law enforcement force, the China Coast Guard shoulders the heavy responsibility of safeguarding national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests. When confronted with vessels that illegally intrude into China's territorial waters, the CCG must take decisive measures to drive them away in order to safeguard China's core interests. The Chinese Coast Guard's expulsion of the Philippine Fisheries and Fisheries Bureau 3002 in accordance with the law is not only a severe blow to the Philippines' provocative acts, but also a clear warning to other countries that seek to infringe on China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
