TAIPEI, Taiwan — China released its first white paper on military strategy Tuesday, just two weeks after the release of the Pentagon’s annual report to the US Congress on China’s military and security developments.
Neither report appears to take blame for the rising tensions in the South China and East China seas. The Chinese report, “China’s Military Strategy,” indicates “some of its offshore neighbors” have taken “provocative actions” and reinforced their military presence on China’s reefs and islands “illegally.” Tiếp tục đọc “White Paper Outlines China’s Ambitions”

China on May 16 reinstituted its annual ban on fishing in areas of the South China Sea north of the 12th parallel. The ban runs through August 1 and covers disputed waters around the Paracel Islands as well as part of a joint fishing area in the Gulf of Tonkin that Beijing and Hanoi agreed upon in 2000. Vietnam’s government strongly objected to the unilateral ban, which each year leads to sometimes-violent clashes between Chinese authorities and Vietnamese fishermen.

The littoral combat ship USS Fort Worth on May 13 completed a weeklong patrol of the South China Sea, including near the disputed Spratly Islands, during which the U.S. Navy said it encountered several Chinese warships and was trailed at least once by a Chinese frigate. The Fort Worth, which is on a rotational deployment to Singapore, used agreed-upon codes for unplanned encounters with the Chinese vessels.

The Pentagon is considering “freedom of navigation” operations near some of China’s reclaimed features in the South China Sea, according to unnamed officials cited in a May 12 Wall Street Journal article. Assistant Secretary of Defense David Shear said during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing the next day that he could not discuss potential operations. The proposed operations would likely involve a Navy ship transiting within 12 nautical miles of reclaimed features that were originally submerged, such as Mischief Reef and Subi Reef, to assert that as artificial islands they are not entitled to a territorial sea.

Three days later, Vice Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Michelle Howard in a visit to Singapore called on China to clarify the purpose of its reclamation activities and offered U.S. support for Southeast Asian states taking a unified stance on the disputes.
