Argentina’s coast guard fired warning shots after a Chinese fishing vessel refused to cooperate with authorities on Saturday. The coast guard opened fire after the vessel, Hua Xiang 801, was caught illegally fishing in Argentina’s exclusive economic zone, and verbal demands failed.
After three hours of pursuit and shooting, the Chinese ship still refused to cooperate – and even tried to collide with coast guard boats on several occasions. Hua Xiang 801 eventually escaped to international waters, where Argentina has no sovereign rights. Hua Xiang 801 is likely belongs to fishery registered in eastern China’s Zhejiang province, according to Caixin’s research – a vessel named Hua Xiang 801 owned by the same company was sent to Peru for fishing last year, a government document showed. This is not the first instance of illegal activity by Chinese fishing vessels in restricted territorial waters. In 2018, Argentina’s coast guard found Chinese vessel Jing Yuan 626 in its exclusive economic zone off the Patagonian coast. Before the vessel fled, the coast guard chased and fired at it for roughly eight hours.
Argentina’s coast guard said it has appealed for an international capture order to apprehend Hua Xiang 801. Donald Trump claims dealmaking is an art, but it seems he was out of ink this week in Vietnam.
The summit between the U.S. President and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was “productive,” Trump said at a press conference in Hanoi on Thursday, despite the unexpected cancellation of a planned lunch and signing ceremony originally listed on the White House schedule.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that they chose to “walk away” after Kim requested sanctions be lifted “in their entirety” but wasn’t prepared to “give us the areas we wanted.” But Pompeo stressed that the two sides made progress towards an agreement during the two-day summit and “felt good about the progress, but couldn’t quite get along the line any further. I hope to do so in the weeks ahead,” he said. Trump and Kim were set to meet twice in Hanoi — a dinner and a bilateral meeting on Wednesday and a planned one-on-one and lunch on Thursday. The lunch was canceled after the Americans reportedly “walked away,” with both leaders departing the Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi earlier than scheduled. At the hastily arranged press conference held two hours earlier than originally planned, Trump described the walk-away as a “friendly” one, and told reporters that the relationship remains “strong” and “warm.” He said that Kim has done well at upholding his agreement to halt missile and nuclear tests.
During the press conference, North Korean state media reported that a delegation from the North Korean foreign ministry was on its way to visit China. China’s Foreign Ministry said at a press conference on Thursday that it hopes dialogue and communication between the United States and North Korea can continue.

A flight that departed China’s Sichuan province heading for Dubai returned after six hours in the air due to concerns of “military activity,” Caixin has learned. The incident happened soon after India and Pakistan said they above their disputed border area. Sichuan Airlines’s flight 3U603 departed from Chengdu at 2:45 p.m. On Wednesday, and remained in a holding pattern above Sichuan before arriving back at Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport at 8:56 p.m.
Sichuan Airlines told Caixin the action was taken due to 'military activity” alerts, though staff from the company didn’t say the incident was directly connected to the recent conflict between Pakistan and India, which includes airspace close to the flight’s route. The foreign ministers of China and Pakistan held an “emergency call” Wednesday night to discuss a recent escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan. Pakistan's Federal Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi told China’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi that he hoped China could play a “constructive” role in reducing the tension, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
