Last year an armada of 300 Chinese fishing vessels were stealing fish near the Galápagos Islands (Ecuador’s exclusive economic zone). This year they are back this time stealing fish from Argentine waters. They need food, and like everything else they need or want, they will take it one way or another.
I saw a fleet like that hit the waters near Sierra Leone. They wouldn’t even allow their people to have shore leave but kept them on the ships way out to sea.
And they destroyed the fishing grounds so much that the people fishing from shore could see the difference.
