Furious China Shadows Two US Warships Sailing Through Disputed Waters, Warns Them To Leave

Furious China Shadows Two US Warships Sailing Through Disputed Waters, Warns Them To Leave thumbnail

China is again furious after the US sailed several warships through the heavily disputed waters in the South China Sea, military sources told Reuters.  The move by the US has escalated tensions between both countries, already tense as the latest round of trade talks have fallen apart, and the signing of the phase one trade deal has likely been delayed

The USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS-10), an Independence-class littoral combat ship, on Wednesday sailed within 12 nautical miles of Mischief Reef, a militarized island in the South China Sea operated by China.

Then on Thursday, USS Wayne E. Meyer, an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer, sailed through the Paracel islands in the South China Sea.

“These missions are based in the rule of law and demonstrate our commitment to upholding the rights, freedoms, and lawful uses of the sea and airspace guaranteed to all nations,” Commander Reann Mommsen, a spokeswoman for the US Navy’s Seventh Fleet, told Reuters.

China’s People’s Liberation Army shadowed the two US warships as they both transited through the disputed waters, and “warned them to leave.” China’s military warned the US has to stop sending warships near its militarized islands to “avoid the happening of any mishap.”

“The US has kept sending naval vessels to stir up trouble in the South China Sea under the pretext of freedom of navigation,” a statement from the Chinese military, with the Southern Theatre Command said. “We call on the US to stop such provocative acts to avoid the happening of any mishap.”

China’s Foreign Ministry Geng Shuang, at a press briefing on Friday, told reporters, “the US actions severely damage China’s sovereignty and safety, destroy the peace and stability in the South China Sea, and we express our resolute opposition.”

The US has increased freedom of navigation operations since the trade war began, attempting to counter China not just on economic fronts, but also on military ones. The latest freedom of navigation missions conducted by the US is coinciding with new reports this week, that the phase one trade deal between both countries has been delayed until 2020. The Trump administration is reportedly not willing to roll back tariffs for a deal that doesn’t include intellectual property and technology transfer. This has caused renewed anxieties between Washington and Beijing.

As trade wars continue to be unresolved, it’s becoming increasingly evident that military tensions between both countries are increasing as well.

    Russia used a network of 150,000 Twitter accounts to meddle in Brexit

    “Europe has on shared language or culture. They are going to rip each other to shreds (again).”

    The shared language is meanwhile English.

    America didn’t fall apart between 1783-now, mainly because it has a common European identity. So obviously has Europe. No “ripping apart”, no matter how much you want to see that happening (“LOL”).

    The US will fall apart over third world immigration. Sad, it could have worked, but unfortunately (for you) Europe is going to take over:

    Europe managed to unite in the EU. Armed conflict is certainly possible with Britain, in case of a no-deal Brexit, provided of course they manage to “escape” from the white world in the first place and dive into diversity, they seem to care so much about:

    Straight into Powell’s Rivers of Blood.

    Over the past 25 years I have never been so upbeat geopolitically like I am now. Everything is now moving in the right direction.

    Brexit
    Trump
    China
    Renewable energy policy EU
    Russia

    I have been a fanatical adherent to the European project since my student days in the seventies, in the hope that some day Europe will regain the status it is entitled to on the basis of its immense heritage, paralleled by none.

    Now it is finally going to happen.

    The problem boils down to too many people and too few resources REAL Green. The only solution is population reduction. All men should only be allowed to produce one child. After that they should be sterilized. Any man refusing sterilization should face mandatory execution.

    I should mention that I am perfectly willing to submit for voluntary execution if it means saving the Earth. While I have been living a REAL GREEN life in the backwaters of Missouri, subsisting on the animals I manage to trap or chase down and goat milk. I am also eschew the use of toilet paper and use my hands like they do in China and Russia. Despite all this, my American carbon foot-print, or goat-print lol (pun-intended), is still as massive as my ego. I feel I am not doing enough, but volunteering to be executed might just send a message that all my REAL GREEN essays have so far failed to do.

    Who is with me?
