Taiwan sends warship to South China Sea after ruling

裁决后，台湾派军舰前往南海

TAIPEI: A Taiwanese warship set sail for the South China Sea on Wednesday “to defend Taiwan’s maritime territory”, a day after an international tribunal ruled China has no historic rights in the waterway and undermined Taipei’s claims to islands there.

周三，一艘台湾军舰前往南海，“捍卫台湾的海洋领土”。而此前一天，一家国际仲裁庭裁决中国对该航道没有历史权力。

President Tsai Ing-wen rallied troops on the deck of the frigate, saying Taiwanese were determined to “defend their country’s rights”, before the warship headed for Taiwan-controlled Taiping island in the Spratly island chain from the southern city of Kaohsiung.

军舰从高雄市前往台湾控制的太平岛之前，“总统”蔡英文在军舰的甲板上集结部队，她说台湾人决心“捍卫国家权力”。

The Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague ruled Tuesday that China has no historic rights to its claimed “nine-dash line” and that it had violated the Philippines’ sovereign rights in the exclusive economic zone.

周二，海牙国际仲裁庭裁决，中国对其所声称的九段线不具有历史权力，“侵犯”了菲律宾在经济专属区的“主权”。

Crucially for Taipei, it ruled that Taiwan-administered Taiping, the largest island in the Spratlys chain, was legally a “rock” that did not give it an exclusive economic zone, undermining Taiwanese claims to waters surrounding the island.

至于台北，裁决称台湾控制的太平岛，也就是南沙最大的岛，法律上是一块“岩石”，并不能赋予其专属经济区
