China is ready to respond to US military provocations

China-y-EEUU-768x527
Beijing, Nov 29 (Prensa Latina)On Tuesday, China warned the United States that its troops are positioned and ready to proceed in case of any threat or military provocation after expressing rejection to the sending of a battleship from that country to China´s jurisdictional waters.

Tian Junli, a spokesperson for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA), stressed in a communique that the passage of Chancellorsville guided-missile cruiser near the islands in the South China Sea on Tuesday, is a “strong evidence” of Washington’s hegemonic and military intentions in the area.

“The move completely proves that the United States is a security risk maker in the region,” Tian said after denouncing its illegal action because it did not have China’s permission.

Tian also claimed China’s sovereignty over the islands in the South China Sea and emphasized that the PLA’s naval and air commandos are mobilized to monitor the ship’s route and will respond to any threat and provocation at any time.
