Korea and the U.S. scheduled for June 8 to 11 in the Yellow Sea at a joint anti-submarine exercise, although delayed, but still. ” George Washington “nuclear aircraft carrier can appear in the most interesting exercise. As the Yellow Sea is China’s sensitive areas, therefore, lead to U.S. aircraft carriers participating in China, “the most intense reaction.”
Although the news from Korea that “George Washington” went to the Yellow Sea, the purpose is to participate in joint military exercises, and not to be deployed in the Yellow Sea. But two of anonymity, said U.S. Defense Department officials told the media that “George Washington” aircraft carrier, not just to participate in anti-submarine exercise, the exercise ended, the aircraft carrier will remain in the area.
“Running” the East China Sea
after a lapse of 16 years, the U.S. aircraft carrier battle group sent again into the sea, no doubt touched the Chinese military sensitive nerve. July 1, PLA Deputy Chief of Staff Ma sky will be clear that, close to China’s territorial waters from the Yellow Sea, (ROK) to hold such exercises, we are very against it.
will be in Ma sky less than 48 hours after the speech, the Japanese Ministry of Defense Ministry of Integration staff supervision (the equivalent of General Staff) on released news that the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force escort in the July 3 afternoon that a Chinese missile destroyer and a frigate after the main island of Okinawa and Miyako Island, between the high seas, heading to the Pacific.
staff supervision department, said in April this year has confirmed that there are, including two submarines and guided missile destroyers, a total of 10 Chinese ships by the waters. What happened was the Chinese Navy North Sea Fleet, East Sea Fleet and South Sea Fleet, deployed together, in Okinawa, Japan, South China Sea, South China Sea, the Bashi Channel and the waters around the Nansha Islands on a large scale military exercises. This is again found that Chinese warships to pass. But Japan is not yet clear whether the two Chinese naval warships in the East China Sea about large-scale military exercises related.
Japanese Defense Ministry official who asked not to be named, claimed that the Chinese navy this time of year to be exercises in nearby waters. In contrast, only 91 765 units of live-fire exercises a “appetizer appetizers” only. Moreover, the recent large number of Chinese Air Force J-10 fighters armed gesture to the sea to test the flight route was also close to the Japanese side of the island about 50 nautical miles northeast corner was once close to the Taiwan Strait from the island very close to that country, among the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force intelligence unit’s attention.
It is speculated that the Chinese military’s purpose is to obtain pursuant to the U.S. aircraft carrier cruising near “Washington” of the radar parameters such as navigation data, and warned the Japanese and South Korean military exercises to keep the distance. Japan’s defense ministry in 2004 and completed in late September found that the Chinese Air Force sent up to 35, six types of combat aircraft, divided into several batches, each batch of the same type of military aircraft from several bases to the sea from tactical drills.
Earlier, the Chinese air force training at sea, are the same type of aircraft, but only two of their vehicles. Different models to the Chinese Air Force “big fleet,” the sea, that the Chinese military has completed the southeast coast of the theater command automation, which makes more than the Chinese Air Force aircraft, high and low altitude with much sophisticated method of battle.
response to the mobilization of the Chinese navy and air force, the U.S. Seventh Fleet nuclear submarine “Michigan”, “Ohio”, “Florida” appeared almost simultaneously, Busan, South Korea, Philippines, Subic Bay and the Indian Ocean Diego Garcia. Foreign media analysis on this: “Three U.S. submarines surfaced at the same time the case was exceptional. This is a demonstration of force, that the United States will not easily hand over command of the sea region of China.”
a series of Running under the United States began a reversal of attitude.
6 June, South Korea, Japan Defense Policy Chief Chang (voice) said in an interview: Korea and the U.S. scheduled for June 8 to 11 in the Yellow Sea in the joint anti-submarine exercises will be postponed to the end of June, because “the U.S. needs more time to prepare.” The original plan, Korea and the U.S. Navy will fly in the Yellow Sea Islands north of Glenn, German plot Island and fish the waters near Qingdao, large-scale anti-submarine exercises.
lost in, “Chosun Ilbo” and even wrote that: a series of Chinese military action clearly aimed at South Korea, the Chinese through diplomatic channels to express strong dissatisfaction to the U.S. and South Korea failed under the “fierce response.” The situation in Northeast Asia, sensitive and dramatic changes in the Western media habitually called “diplomatic occasions trick, the major powers of the game only.”
US-ROK military exercise was originally scheduled for June 7 to 11 be postponed until June 21 to 24, then postponed to the end of June. June 28 came news of the US-ROK military exercises again postponed, postponed until July, as one day, now is unknown.
temporary concessions, but South Korea does not mean the situation in Northeast Asia, “turned the corner.”
Northeast Asia, “agitation”
In fact, the United States in Northeast Asia, the Korean peninsula from wrestling, “agitation” and the Sino-US relations complexity.
Korean “ship” sank after the incident, the two countries has been controversial. ROK-US speech timing further intensified Sino-US conflict. G20 summit, Mr Obama has sent publicly stated: “I hope China recognizes North Korea (in the days of the ship incident) crossed the line.” Around “the day the ship,” the Korean conflict, turned into a Sino-US diplomatic conflict.
North Korea, South Korea joint military exercise next plane to give the “excuse”, but its root is a core strategy of the United States established the Chinese challenge
March this year, China’s first times to the United States that relations between the South China Sea is China’s territorial integrity “core interests.” This makes China become the focus of maritime security hot spots. China in the Yellow Sea, East China Sea, South China Sea, are a clear declaration of their own attitudes and interests of the red line.
China Rear Admiral Yin Cho pointed out: The United States investigation of China’s coastal areas up to several hundred times a year. U.S. troops from China’s Bohai Bay, along the Yellow Sea and East China Sea to the South China Sea, Hainan Island and then to the line of investigation, even tracking the Chinese ships in the South China Sea. In addition, U.S. military organizations and also neighboring countries including Taiwan and areas of joint investigations, China has become its “imaginary.”
Although Rand had predicted: The U.S. military in the Taiwan Strait will be able to easily defeat the Chinese army, but China’s rapid military modernization, the United States remains deeply disturbing.
the U.S. perspective, China’s military modernization “destruction of America’s military strength in the Asia Pacific”, the U.S. military to form a substantial “threat.” In addition to the two countries have long plagued the Taiwan issue, the two countries in the East China Sea and South China Sea, showing the direction of the trend of increasing friction. On the one hand, the U.S. asked China to protect U.S. aircraft, destroyers in the South China Sea, “free access to the right.” On the other hand, China’s South China Sea and East China Sea in the U.S. continuously for the Chinese coastal high-intensity detection and patrol disturbed and angry.
new pattern in Northeast Asia under the US-ROK joint military exercises as “ask” and “testing the waters”, and acting freely … …
“the two sides through their respective media of a ‘culture war’, whether into the Yellow Sea on the United States exercises this sensitive issue for a number of levels of repeated review, the fundamental purpose of such a complex situation on the Korean Peninsula situation, the test each other’s bottom line and response, for the possible future of the new security pattern in Northeast Asia consultation ‘to try the water’. “Zhiyuan Zhou Chenming Defense Research Institute Senior Fellow to the” World Expo “correspondent interpretation Road.
