China Daily decries ‘reckless actions’ after HMS Albion sails close to disputed Paracel islands

Benjamin Haas in Seoul


The United Kingdom should “refrain from being Washington’s sharksucker”, according to a state-run Chinese newspaper, after British warship sailed through contested waters in the South China Sea.

The HMS Albion, a 22,000 ton amphibious warship carrying a contingent of Royal Marines, passed by the Paracel Islands in late August on its way from Japan to Vietnam.

Interesting: the British risk a major trade post Brexit deal with China for the sake of a symbolic guest to Vietnam.

To be fair America is the product of British empire, kind of like a son of Britain.
