The Chinese side released a scientific research report, and the broken ship that the Philippines did not want to tow away could no longer be kept, and the countdown to the clearance of Ren'ai Jiao has begun.
(China issued a blockbuster report, Ren'ai Jiao broke the ship and could not stay)
On July 8, the South China Sea Ecology Center of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the South China Sea Development Research Institute of the Ministry of Natural Resources jointly released an investigation report on the destruction of the coral reef ecosystem by Philippine warships illegally "beached" on Ren'ai Jiao.
The report pointed out that the Philippines' illegal "beached" shipwreck committed four crimes at Ren'ai Jiao: first, it caused fatal damage to the coral reef ecosystem of Ren'ai Jiao; second, it has a great inhibitory effect on the growth and recovery of corals around the broken ship; Third, the metal caused by the rust and damage of the broken ship, as well as the discharge of domestic garbage and sewage from Philippine personnel, have caused long-term harm to the growth of corals. Fourth, the discarded fishing nets and fishing lines of Philippine fishing boats and broken boats in fishing activities have also had a serious impact on the ecological health of coral reefs.
(Excerpt from the report released by the Chinese side)
The core point of the report is that the illegal "beaching" of broken ships in the Philippines has seriously damaged the diversity, stability and sustainability of the coral ecosystem of Ren'ai Jiao.
Coral reefs are extremely important in marine ecosystems, providing habitats and the basis of the food chain for many marine organisms, as well as protecting coastlines, maintaining biodiversity, and contributing to the global carbon cycle.
The Chinese side mentioned in the report that only by eliminating the source of pollution can we continue to avoid the sustained and cumulative damage caused by the Ren'ai Jiao ecosystem.
Not only that, the Chinese side also disclosed a large number of photos in this report, which are ironclad evidence of the damage caused by the Philippine shipbreaking to the coral reef ecosystem of Ren'ai Jiao. Unlike the slander that comes out of the mouth of the Philippine side, we have solid evidence, and even the Philippines' quibbles are useless.
This is also the first time that China has conducted a comprehensive and systematic assessment of the state of the coral reef ecosystem, which is obviously an unusual move.
(The report released by the Chinese side is supported by photos)
We have conducted such a comprehensive investigation, collected so many photos, and spent so much effort to write this report, and naturally we will not simply send it out to everyone to popularize science, which shows that our public opinion preparation has reached a very detailed level.
Over the past year or so, we have actually done a lot of public opinion preparation work around the Ren'ai Jiao issue, first of all, citing relevant international laws and international treaties to give the Philippines a review of how large the scope of their national territory is. Relevant international laws and treaties stipulate that the territorial scope of the Philippines may not include islands and reefs in the South China Sea;
Immediately afterwards, we announced the gentlemen's agreement between China and the Philippines, which is to tell the outside world that even if the broken Philippine ship is illegally "beached" in our inherent territory, we are still willing to provide them with daily supplies in the spirit of humanitarianism, and as long as we do not transport illegal building materials, we will let them go.
As a result, the Philippines has to make inches of progress, refuses to change its ways, and even abandons and refuses to recognize our gentlemen's agreement for no reason, so naturally we no longer need to allow the Philippines to resupply operations.
Subsequently, China issued Coast Guard Order No. 3, which clearly stipulates that the China Coast Guard has the right to detain foreigners who illegally infringe on the mainland's maritime rights and territorial sovereignty, providing a legal basis for the China Coast Guard's law enforcement in the South China Sea. Now, China has taken the initiative to release such a report, clearly pointing out the extent of the damage caused to Ren'ai Jiao by illegally "beached" broken ships.
(The China Coast Guard issued Order No. 3 and immediately upgraded its law enforcement measures)
Do you think this scene is familiar? Since the issuance of the Coast Guard's Order No. 3, there has been a marked escalation in the CCG's enforcement actions.
Even though the Philippines dispatched six ships in the last resupply operation against the broken ship, none of them were able to successfully deliver supplies to the broken Philippine ship. The China Coast Guard has laws to follow, and naturally it is more confident. Philippine Navy personnel did not report in advance, and dared to carry illegal building materials and weapons, saying that they must not be let go.
Then we cannot ignore the fact that China's latest report mentions the following sentence: "Only by eliminating the source of pollution can we avoid further harm to the coral reef ecosystem of Ren'ai Jiao".
Does this mean that the broken ship illegally beached on Ren'ai Jiao is about to usher in its finale? When we deal with international affairs, we generally pay attention to reasonableness, evidence, and restraint. After the Chinese Coast Guard issued Order No. 3, in the face of the Philippine Navy that came to force its way into Ren'ai Jiao again, we no longer relented and ruthlessly cleaned them up.
So again, since our investigation report has been released and pointed out that the broken ship on Ren'ai Jiao can no longer be left, it is obviously a matter of time before we tow away the broken ship and clear Ren'ai Jiao. We're ready to tow the wrecked ship away, and it's just a moment away from it.
(Clearing Ren'ai Reef, only one time away)
When is the best time? Naturally, it was the time for the Philippines to take the initiative to send it. As long as the Philippines takes the initiative to provoke Ren'ai Jiao again and escalates the scale, it can give us a good opportunity to make up our minds to do it, and then we will be famous, and we will not be afraid that the Philippines will attract the support of the United States and its allies.
What's more, the United States and Western countries are the groups that like to talk about environmental protection the most. Since the shipwreck in the Philippines has damaged the coral reef ecosystem of Ren'ai Jiao so much, it is only natural for us to tow the wrecked ship away.
At this time, we are not afraid that the Philippines will come to Ren'ai Jiao to make trouble again, on the contrary, we are also afraid that the Philippines will stop there. As long as the Philippines dares to make trouble again and makes the disturbance bigger, the matter of towing away the broken ship and clearing the Ren'ai Jiao will be a matter of course, and the farce of the Philippines on Ren'ai Jiao can also come to an end.
