China's Ministry of Defense demanded that the United States stop "risky operations in the South China Sea" after the incident with USS Connecticut

17

The Chinese Ministry of Defense has issued an address to its Pentagon counterparts. In fact, we are talking about the demands put forward by the Chinese military department to the American address.

Chinese military officials have demanded that the US Department of Defense "end risky operations in the South China Sea." The reason for this demand is that American operations "are becoming more aggressive and less transparent." At the same time, it is noted that one of the latest examples is the incident with damage to the Connecticut nuclear submarine.



The Chinese Ministry of Defense notes that the United States, after numerous appeals to clarify what happened in the depths of the South China Sea with USS Connecticut, did not disclose data on the incident.

The main military department of the PRC:

China has the right to receive more detailed information from the United States about the vague US statement about the incident with the USS Connecticut nuclear submarine.

At the same time, it is added that the Chinese Ministry of Defense requires the United States to stop naval operations in the South China Sea, because they pose a threat to regional security and significantly increase the risk of radiation leaks on strategically important water routes.

Chinese Ministry spokesman Tang Kefei:

We repeat our demands: explain to us and the entire world community what happened to the nuclear submarine. What kind of "mysterious" object it was that collided with.

In Beijing, US silence on this issue was called irresponsible and unconstructive.
Tan Kefei:

This US response to the incident suggests that US intentions in the South China Sea may run counter to regional security.

      Control over the South China Sea is primarily important due to logistics routes and natural resources. About 40% of all world trade traffic passes through the local sea routes, as well as the Strait of Malacca, and up to 80% of China's oil and gas imports are transported. Plus huge reserves of hydrocarbons, which were discovered in the 70s of the last century. We do not discount fishing as well! Territorial strife in the South China Sea may well become the beginning of a new big war. Here the stakes are very high and the interests of many states are intertwined - the main players in the confrontation are China and the United States, and what about some, what about others, the sense of their own superiority over the enemy is already beyond common sense! Plus, the AUKUS created by the Anglo-Saxons and the appearance of nuclear submarines in Australia in the future adds a specific amount to the Chinese communists every day!

        Mattress makers really do not give a damn about where the radiation will leak if something happens - just not off the coast of California! The ocean is BIG, tolerant and overcooked! The White House is NOT INTERESTED in environmental problems of this area! Although "soyuznichki" live there ... they are hostages!

          China is absolutely right putting pressure on the United States because of the Connecticut accident! Now will help a little, but it will come in handy in the future. Water wears away a stone! smile

    Handsome))) We washed the mattresses in full - they say, guys, we are peaceful people, we don't bother anyone and we are not going to. but you are stupid people! Look, they almost drowned their submarine ... As in one vulgar joke, "what if in the eye?" You would have gargled in a paddling pool, otherwise the dog knows you - then you will drown the submarine, then something else ... It's scary for you, you miserable!
    And all this is extremely correct lol

      Yes, trolling is valid, but they are far from the appeal of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry since the "first mandate of Tikhanovskaya" ...

    Everybody wanted to sneeze mattresses. In that region, a lot of money is tied, you can't pull it off by the ears. The Chinese know this, but they cannot do anything.

    explain to us and the entire world community what happened to the nuclear submarine
    All indications are that China knows more than it says. And this information is not in favor of the United States, which is why such persistence is shown on the Chinese side. And it's not just the "risk of radiation leakage".

          Next time, the Americans may not hobble to Guam on their own, they will drag by the nostril, to the accompaniment of Chinese laughter.

            Recently, an American ship wanted to get lost at our maritime border, it was hinted to him that this might be the last delusion.

    The moment about the Malak Strait is interesting.
    I would even add: for the Chinese Malak is like Suez for Egypt.
    True, Indonesia and Malaysia are in command of the strait. But the stone about malaka deserves attention. The Strait of Sunda doesn't count, I guess ...
