Japan and the Netherlands protested China’s alleged aerial and maritime provocation in the East China Sea. The Netherlands on June 8 accused Chinese air force jets of circling a Dutch frigate and approaching a Dutch helicopter in the disputed waters.

In response, Tokyo lodged a “strong protest” through diplomatic channels demanding a swift exit from the area. Watch the video to find out more.
