"센카쿠" (Senkaku) refers to a group of uninhabited islands located in the East China Sea. These islands are known as the Diaoyu in China and the Diaoyutai in Taiwan. The Senkaku Islands are strategically important due to their proximity to shipping lanes and potential underwater resources. The ownership of the Senkaku Islands is disputed, primarily between Japan, China, and Taiwan. Japan currently administers the islands, but both China and Taiwan claim sovereignty over them. This territorial dispute has led to heightened tensions in the region, affecting diplomatic relations among the involved countries.
