Chinese coast guard boat driven away from Taiwanese waters as tensions continue to rise between the two
Fox News
Foreign tensions continues for Taiwan and China after a Chinese coast guard boat was spotted in Taiwanese waters. The boat was forced to leave the area.
Taiwan's coast guard said it will continue to use radar, surveillance and patrols to ensure the "harmony and safety" near the waters of Taiwan-controlled Kinmen islands, which are close to China's shores.
Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory despite the island's rejection, has been wary of efforts by Beijing to ramp up pressure on Taipei following the election last month of Lai Ching-te as president, a man Beijing views as a dangerous separatist.
