Taiwanese authorities will repatriate two crew members who were detained after a Chinese fishing boat capsized last week on the coast of Kinmen Island, a remote Taiwanese island near China, to China on the 20th. I made it clear.
On the 14th of this month, a Chinese fishing boat capsized during a crackdown by Taiwanese authorities in waters near Kinmen Island, located off the coast of Xiamen in southern China's Fujian Province, killing two of the four people on board.
Taiwanese authorities had detained the two remaining fishing boat crew members due to this incident, but announced on the 20th that they would be repatriated to the Chinese side.
The Mainland Commission, the Taiwanese authorities in charge of China policy, said, ``We call for cross-strait mutual cooperation to proceed in a rational and realistic manner.''
The Chinese side also said that related personnel will arrive at the site on the 20th, along with the crew members' families.
Meanwhile, in response to this accident, the China Coast Guard announced that it would strengthen patrols in the waters around Kinmen Island, and according to Taiwanese authorities, a pleasure boat that departed from Kinmen Island was inspected by Chinese authorities on the 19th. That is to say.
China has taken countermeasures against Taiwan, but it will be interesting to see whether China will continue to strengthen these measures.
