What Japan Just Did to China’s Fleet Changes Everything
January 2026. More than 2,000 Chinese fishing vessels form a 500-kilometer steel wall in the East China Sea — positioned between Japan and Taiwan. Satellite images published by the New York Times reveal what analysts call a blockade rehearsal.
Days later, Japan arrests a Chinese captain inside its Exclusive Economic Zone. Beijing issues a warning. Tensions spike.
Behind these incidents lies a larger strategy: China’s maritime militia, gray-zone warfare, and a potential strangulation scenario targeting Taiwan’s energy lifeline. Meanwhile, Japan accelerates its largest military buildup since World War II, the United States strengthens deterrence across the Pacific, and Taiwan prepares its “porcupine strategy.”
This is not just a regional dispute. It’s a high-stakes geopolitical chess match involving:
China
Japan
Taiwan
United States
TSMC
Semiconductors. Energy chokepoints. Naval power. Demographics. And the growing alignment between Beijing and Moscow.
If a crisis erupts in the Taiwan Strait, the consequences won’t stay in Asia — they will reshape the global economy and the balance of power for decades.

Quran 9:29 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
You forget China refused to pay for oil pipelines across Siberia and Russia can not afford to build them. Hollow threat.
A wall of fishing fleet is useless as a military tactic, a few bombs or mines will scattered the fleet.
G O O O O D!!!!! Iam sick and tired of China's provocations!
More bloody AI
Why should The Republic of China (sometimes wrongly called Taiwan) waste all that money on some old, outdated US military junk?
Save your money and negotiate a peaceful one country 2 systems deal with the PRC. Billions of dollars would flow into the island
as Chinese investment. Forget LNG get cheap energy from China and Russia and the ROC on Taiwan will see an amazing boom.
she is shouting
The Three Gorges Dam is the largest soft target in the world. It would be the first thing to go in a real WWIII.
Siberian pipeline is a target be sure no fuel for China during a conflict
Militia fishing vessels are legitimate military targets and can be sunk without warning.
"They are not really fishermen' they are highly trained Chinese PLA Militia men poaching, encroaching, & looking for any unhabitted island to occupy, claim it, changes it's name & call it their own territories since the time memorial" and that is the gray zone tactics of a trouble maker & a greedy land grabber of Asia"
And just what did the Japanese do? Analysis? Click bait!
Comunists murderers never stop causing problems . They have killed millions AND want killing More thousands millions torturing raping humilliating massacring inocent civilians pets elderly infants flora fauna etc SLAVA Ukraini WEST HEROES TAIWAN TaiwanTalks ALWAYS Slava
China is very strict to those who are crossing its red lines, but China's fishing militiamen always violate fishing grounds of other countries such as Philippines, Indonesia, Argentina and Japan !
garbage your create
Hoy china this sea is not yours i hope that japan is fight now and others countries …
FUCK THE SHITTALK…WHAT WILL THE YANKEES DO THAT MATTERS…
I can predict when the 3 Gorges Dam will burst. The very moment China launches a missile to Taiwan, that's when! 🤗
Just wait and see China will lose everything his disposable military including those acting as a fishermen will be sank when the pass the red zone, Beijing will be crying for help where help is not there
This unrepentant war criminal Japan has again shown itself to be criminally no different from the US behaving as international pirates and robbers by seizing foreign vessels in international waters! The day of reckoning will come to both these criminal nations to be severely punished for their crimes!
Many people don’t know this, Japan or even the US can’t go to a war with China. There are over 800,000 Chinese living in Japan and how many of them are militants??? no one knows. And how many non-chinese are hired by the Ccp to take Japan out when war breaks out??? Vietnamese, Indians, Latino, Thai, Malaysian, Filipino, Muslims???
Sure, this sure happened. It's the Troubler of Neighbours: China
The solution to the Chinese blockade is simple, use low flying aerial refueling planes to dose the fleet with fuel then set it ablaze.
You are brilliant.
Every Chinese should learn about the Battle of Yultong.
This battle shows that numbers doesn't alone determine success.
To the narrator, Please mention of the scenario of the 3 Gorges Dam being hit with the 30,000 pound Bunker Buster bombs carried by a totally stealth B-2 bombers.
