BEIJING: China plans to establish a military garrison in the disputed Sansha
islands in the South China Sea giving a dangerous turn to its tussle with
the Philippines and Vietnam on territorial issues. The three countries have
overlapping claims on different parts of the Sansha islands.
The move came after a meeting of foreign ministers of the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) ended in a deadlock on the South China Sea
issue at Phnom Penh this week. Asean took the unusual step of not issuing
the customary joint communique because of differences on the issue.
The Philippines and Vietnam want Asean to tackle maritime disputes, but
China is opposed to outside mediation. "China has sufficient historical and
jurisprudential evidence for its sovereignty over Nansha islands and
adjacent waters," said Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lie.
The People's Liberation Army has been asked to create a division-level
command , which will be "responsible for managing the (Sansha) city's
national defence mobilization, military reserves and carrying out military
operations" , state media said.
The new move is also a challenge to the US position in the region because
Washington is seen to be supporting the claims of Vietnam and the
Philippines on Sansha islands. |
