The official website of Chinese defense ministry reports the “intrusion” of two US B-52s into China’s newly established ADIZ over the East China Sea.
China is about to establish a second air defense identification zone over the South China Sea, Qin Gang, spokesperson for China’s foreign ministry, said on Nov. 25, according to the Moscow-based Voice of Russia.
Qin said the air defense identification zone over the East China Sea announced by Beijing on Nov. 23 was a buffer zone to defend the territorial integrity of China and said a second air defense identification zone which may cover the disputed South China Sea will be established in due course.
Zheng Zeguang, the Chinese assistant foreign minister, summoned both Gary Locke and Masato Kitera, the US and Japanese ambassadors to protest against opposition from both nations to the East China Sea ADIZ.
In his meeting with Locke on Nov. 24, Zheng suggested the United States stop making comments regarding Beijing’s move. Zheng also stressed that it is necessary for Washington to redress its “mistake” in expressing its support for Tokyo. In his meeting with Kitera on Nov. 25, Zheng said Japanese politicians should stop provoking China because it will bring instability to the region.
On Nov. 25, Akitaka Saiki, Japan’s vice foreign minister, also summoned Chinese ambassador Cheng Yonghua to express Tokyo’s opposition to the newly established air defense identification zone over the East China Sea.
Yang Yujun, spokesperson for the Chinese defense ministry, said on Nov. 25 that Japan was the party which first sent its fighters to follow and monitor Chinese aircraft over the East China Sea first. Yang also called for the United States to remain neutral in the dispute.
