Recently, many foreign media coverage of the uproar, “the U.S. aircraft carriers into the Yellow Sea”, said the U.S. military will send nuclear aircraft carrier in the end of June, “Washington” to go to the Yellow Sea to participate in the US-ROK joint military exercise.

For this event, many domestic experts and scholars have made the appropriate comments. June 22, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang made stand on the issues. Meanwhile, many military enthusiasts online attention on the matter, have “posted” to express their opinions and views. “Chen Hu Troops” and the concern with you, “the United States Han Huanghai exercises”, especially the U.S. carriers into the Yellow Sea, once the impact would arise.

I think that there are three issues that require attention: first, this move by the United States the biggest threat to China what the second is how to treat China’s response, the third is how to react to obtain the best effect.

United States, a move the biggest threat to China what is

Many media reports said the U.S. “Washington” USS “combat radius of 600 kilometers, once into the Yellow Sea, near the coast of China’s territorial waters and the entire North China, most of the Liaodong Peninsula and so an all Department In the United States under the carrier’s combat radius of coverage. ”

Also commented that the U.S. military would be careful surveillance of the military deployment along the Chinese coast. That is, at present the major media and some experts view, focusing on the U.S. aircraft carrier into the Yellow Sea of China itself, the immediate military threat.

In my point of view, the U.S. military move against the greatest threat posed by China is not a direct military threat. Because the U.S. was fully aware of the attitude of the Chinese – the Chinese armed forces have the determination, ability and means to deal with access to the coast, pose a direct military threat of large-scale carrier battle group.

That is, if the U.S. aircraft carrier battle groups into the Yellow Sea, really dare to have any direct military action, the Chinese military can take adequate and effective measures to counter the threat.

So the greatest threat to China what is it? In fact, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Qin Gang’s speech which, expressed on this issue is clear. Qin Gang said in the current situation, the parties should keep calm and exercise restraint, should not exacerbate tensions, undermine the region, the national interest.

Obviously, Qin Gang’s answers have been explicitly discussed, the United States this move, for China, the surrounding area produced the greatest threat to undermine the stability of the region, prone to lead to confrontation, lead to conflicts and even a war footing. This is the greatest threat to the U.S. move will have, and this threat is not only detrimental to China, is not conducive to the entire Northeast Asian regional security and stability.

How do the Chinese side of the response

Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang in his speech that China is very concerned about the reports, was closely tracking developments. Obviously, this statement is a diplomatic response, that the Chinese side on this issue is of great concern.

From the event itself, the U.S. aircraft carrier into the Yellow Sea exercise, not a normal sexual activity, but a special case. Historically, though often with the U.S. aircraft carrier South Korea, Japan to carry out some exercises, but most of its exercises in the Sea of Japan Sea or the Korean peninsula in Northeast waters. This time of exercise in the Yellow Sea, which is on the Korean peninsula west of this part.

This situation was previously rare. In October 1994 there have been a similar situation: the U.S. “Kitty” aircraft, participated in a military exercise held here, while “in the territorial waters of the outer edge of China conducted a cruise.” Critics of the world at that time regarded the move as a provocative action. Now the U.S. has made this very state of the move, can be said that this action should be a show of force, to exert influence and pressure on the measure.

According to the U.S. and ROK to say, a show of force, influence and pressure of the move, mainly for the DPRK. But in fact the exercise will also affect the location that this approach to China. In this case, the Chinese side made any reaction is normal.

Not only China, a country of any such circumstances, can respond accordingly. This response may include diplomacy, public opinion, military. At the same time, it also shows that even the U.S. If for some considerations to cancel the action, can not be seen as the U.S. side makes a concession, or what the benefits to China, but can only think that this is the United States aware of their action of this region will affect stability and trigger the end fight, but to the “mistakes and wrongs” of the action.

How to respond to obtain the best results

The answer to this problem is not the response itself against China, and not simply for that event. Any country in the world encounter a similar situation, will respond accordingly.

Once encountered such a situation, what response to make to get the best effect? I would like nothing more than two:

One must be diplomatic position and attitude accurately and effectively communicate one’s message, telling the other: Your practice undermine regional stability, will lead to confrontation and even lead to conflict and war, so this is improper. As the countries in the region, have the right to express concern on this issue, expressed concern that opposition.

Another aspect is the military response. When a country faced a similar situation, in the military to receive the best results, we will build “a bad thing into a good thing.”

For any one country, national organizations such as another aircraft carrier battle group into a huge threat to national security could be when the sea are in fact one of the best training objectives: Since you have a show of force in this area, to drill I also can target your actions, organizing appropriate action to you as a target for the exercise – this is a closest to the practical operation of the exercise objectives. From the military point of view, this exercise will receive general training or training, which is less than the effect.
