The China Coast Guard (CCG) conducted law enforcement patrols in the waters surrounding Taiwan island on Monday.

The patrols, conducted by CCG formations of vessels 2901, 1305, 1303 and 2102, are a practical action to lawfully enforce control over Taiwan island in accordance with the one-China principle.

On the same day, the Fujian Coast Guard also organized a formation of vessels to conduct comprehensive law enforcement patrols in the waters near the islands of Dongyin and Matsu, with the aim of testing its rapid response and emergency handling capabilities.

The Fujian Coast Guard patrols focused on exercises of verification and identification, boarding inspections, and control and expulsion operations.

The Dongyin and Matsu islands and their surrounding waters are an important fishing ground for fishermen from across the Taiwan Strait.

Slovak PM regards visit to China as most important visit in 2024

Robert Fico, Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic, described his early November visit to China as the most important visit of 2024 during an interview with China Media Group (CMG).

Fico paid an official visit to China from Oct. 31 to Nov. 5 at the invitation of Chinese Premier Li Qiang. During his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Nov. 1, the two countries agreed to elevate their bilateral relations to a strategic partnership.

When explaining why he placed such significant importance on his visit to China, Fico shared his views on China's influence on global affairs.

"Thank you for the interview! I want to say that not only in Slovakia, but in the entire European Union, we have underestimated certain things. We have underestimated not only China's influence on world peace but also its impact on the global economy. This is why I believe it is very appropriate to call this visit 'the most important visit of 2024'," he said.

Fico previously served as Slovakia's prime minister from 2006 to 2010 and again from 2012 to 2018.

He was reappointed to the position in October 2023.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Slovakia.
