      Oh come on. So extreme. He should be promoted. China does that all the time unless he “inadvertently” entered Chinese waters on his own free will. Then that’s a problem.

      Did China sack the pilots of their surveillance plane that incurred upon Japanese air space? If not, promote the man!

      Before reading, I just wanna say that’s crazy I hope it’s not a demotion or anything permeant. China claims way more than they have right to as is

      Hopefully sacked to be promoted as the supreme commander. 😉

      Usually, the incidents happen within disputed area. But this time it is different.

      From the article above:
      “In the early morning of July 4, the Suzutsuki sailed for some 20 minutes in Chinese waters within 12 nautical miles (22 kilometers) of the coast of Zhejiang Province.”

      There is no dispute that the area is owned by China.

      [https://www.marineinsight.com/maritime-law/understanding-international-waters-boundaries-jurisdiction-and-legal-implications/](https://www.marineinsight.com/maritime-law/understanding-international-waters-boundaries-jurisdiction-and-legal-implications/)

      “The territorial sea is the area adjacent to a coastal state’s land territory. It extends up to 12 nautical miles (22.2 kilometres) from the baselines, which are the low-water lines along the coast. Within this zone, coastal states exercise full sovereignty, including the right to regulate and enforce laws on customs, immigration, and pollution control. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea ([UNCLOS](https://www.marineinsight.com/maritime-law/nautical-law-what-is-unclos/)) provides the legal framework for territorial seas.”

      That’s why the Japanese captain is dismissed. He is likely acting in his own accord.

      This is what Japans problem is. Take the easy way out. Every time.
