Yellow Sea no place for US carrier
A symbol of its past hegemony, the US still likes to deploy aircraft carriers around the world when it wishes to disturb others.So far, no definitive answer has been given to speculation over whether the US will send a carrier to participate in joint military drills with South Korea in the Yellow Sea.
But the possibility remains infuriating to many Chinese.But the US should reconsider its military movements in the West Pacific. Disguised as a move aimed at maintaining regional stability, the deployment of a carrier off of China's coast is a provocation that will generate hostility among the Chinese public toward the US. Who would not be bothered by an opponent hanging around at the door with a gun all day long?
