Hotly Contested South China Sea: “Blatant Provocation” To Provoke Military Confrontation With China
The United States sent a guided missile destroyer close to China’s artificial islands in a bid to QUOTE: “intentionally provoke a military confrontation” with Beijing, expert on Asia Michael Billington told PressTV reported Sputnik News.
In late October, the USS Lassen sailed within 12 nautical miles of Subi (Zhubi) Reef, a man-made feature in the Spratly archipelago, apparently challenging China’s sovereignty claims over this area of the hotly contested South China Sea.
The operation was not authorized by Beijing.
The Chinese really want to “defend themselves against this mad threat of war being carried out by Obama on a global scale,” Billington observed. “This provocation in Asia has to be recognized as grounds for impeachment of this president,” he reported.
