Didn’t know that China also had disputes with a different sea. Thought it was just the South China/West Philippine sea.
Anybody have more information on this?
Japan, just like China, has disputes over several groups of “islands” with several of their neighbors (at least Russia, South Korea, China and Taiwan). A very small number of these islands are inhabited. But many are more or less just rocks that formed from underwater volcanoes. (Japan grows by a few more islands regularly due to those.)
The islands this is about are claimed by Japan, China and Taiwan. They hold strategic significance, but it’s mostly about suspected resources at the bottom of the sea.
