I always note that they’re unwilling to show a map of where these incidents occur.
Odd, that.
The story says they were in international waters, inside the Japanese economic zone. It’s easy enough to find a map of that area if you need it. What are you implying that they are trying to gloss over?
Japan’s EEZ only gives Japan rights for resource exploitation and whatnot. For the purposes of this issue, it’s international waters.
Though, Western media has a tendency of referring to disputed waters as “international” or belonging to whichever country is more friendly to the US.
