News China accused the US of a serious violation of sovereignty: what happened between the states by alex 04.12.2023 written by alex 04.12.2023 47 China accused the US of violating territorial integrity / Collage 24 Channel China accused the United States of violating its sovereignty. This happened after the US Navy ship Gabriel Giffords appeared in the South China Sea. This vessel was sailing near the Second Thomas Shoal. China noted that this increases “long-term military tension between countries.” China criticized the US for the passage of the ship The Chinese military has strongly condemned the presence of the US Navy destroyer Gabriel Giffords at Second Thomas Shoal, declaring it a “serious attack on China's sovereignty and security.” The Chinese side also argued that the emergence of the littoral combat ship had seriously “jeopardized regional peace and stability.” In addition, the military has highlighted the United States as “the main threat to this peace and stability in the region.” Responding to these allegations, US Seventh Fleet Commander Megan Green explained that the US vessel was simply conducting routine operations in international waters, fully complying with established international laws and regulations. We will not stop to continue to work together with our allies and partners in support of our shared vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific region,” she said. Bloomberg journalists emphasized that Beijing has still not named a candidate to replace suspended Defense Minister Li Shangfu, despite the fact that during the meeting between Xi Jinping and Joe Biden, China agreed to political discussions with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin. Thus, a prolonged lack of communication increases the risk that an incident in the South China Sea could escalate into conflict. China has already accused the United States of encroaching on sovereignty The American guided-missile destroyer USS Hopper entered the waters off the disputed Paracel Islands, which China claims, at the end of November. Thus, the United States wanted to show freedom of navigation in the region. At the same time, such a step was strongly condemned by the Chinese. They emphasized that this was an encroachment on territorial integrity and sent their military forces in response. It should be noted that the Paracel Islands are claimed by Vietnam, China and Taiwan. They are located between the Pacific and Indian oceans and are of strategic importance for shipping. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail alex previous post The Ukrainian women's handball team made it past the preliminary round of the World Cup for the first time in 18 years. next post Mobilization 2023: can they be drafted if the wife is disabled group 2 You may also like Usyk vs Fury rematch: final date and venue... 24.10.2024 Zelensky explained why the UN Secretary General went... 24.10.2024 Lessons, tests and exams: online military training launched... 24.10.2024 Plane shot down in Darfur had Russians on... 24.10.2024 Explosions in Crimea on October 24: details of... 24.10.2024 United Russia office burned down with Molotov cocktails... 24.10.2024 Night explosions in Kyiv: about ten drones neutralized 24.10.2024 One step towards World War III – The... 24.10.2024 Seven countries oppose Ukraine's rapid accession to NATO... 24.10.2024 Will not side with Russia: India has an... 24.10.2024 Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
