The United States has denied Chinese claims that a US destroyer was driven out from waters around the contested Paracel Islands after it “illegally” entered the area.
China’s state media described the US ship as having trespassed in “Chinese territorial waters”.
The US Navy on Thursday disputed the PLA statement, saying the destroyer was conducting “routine operations” in the South China Sea and was not expelled by Chinese ships.

US: It’s now or never man. We must start the war with China before they completely surpass us!
China can not claim illegally the West Phil sea as defined in UNCLOS …It is international waters with freedom of navigation among all nations….period….
lol China is a poser. They know they have zero claim to most of the sea to their south. But Xi likes acting like a douche.
What USA doing there
Sailing through international waters.
Try to start a war.
Sight seeing
provoking and war starting
china should stop grabbing islands
Time to cut off all imports from China.
Please 🙏!!! USA 🇺🇸 Navy / service personnel come Home and be closer to our home and families , we got plenty spaces at Home.
South China sea belong to international water.
Why us threatens world peace? South China Sea isn’t in America
l am super excited my financial life has totally changed ever since I ventured into crypto market. Ive been earning over $12,000 every single week. Lol 😊
. 👆👆🇺🇲🇺🇲
A lot people are milionaires in secret by stock investments, they invest and reinvested very big and money keeps coming in weekly
My account is currently unimaginable from what I earn on daily basis using the strategy of Mrs Catalina.
Mrs Catalina is obviously the best, I’ve been able to secure a steady inflow of my returns of stock investments.
Hmm you guys keep saying USA but we all know in reality the American military is the West’s military so all of these Europeans need to quit pretending like Europeans aren’t scumbags also hahaha!
china will never go to war with the us, they love $$$ too much
What I see, Biden is incompetence US president.
Lost the war in Afganistan, but it is good for Afgan.
Proxy war with Russia, and Ukraine becomes the victim
US Banks collapsed.
US inflation and higher energy price.
Escalating tensions with China.
Pushing for a new world order. Russia and China unite while the US loses hegemony.
Destroy UN credibility, UN has no power.
😂😂😂😂
Good work
It’s crystal clear now that the people at the Washington are seeking for a direct military conflict with both China and Russia. North Korea is no longer important.
I guess you should answer that USA phone call you keep that conversation going 😂😂
China bullying neighbors country most of all china occupy shallow water build artificial Island not belong to them….😖🤐😫
I can’t tell what’s worst , Chinese bots or Russian , there’s a lot more Chinese obviously . time to get hit with the Biden bot because they have nothing else .
Screw China
Where is F Chinese dictators complaining before about nonsense? They also travel many international waters. Nothing wrong with that. Stop nonsense
You do know if the USN floated all of their 11 super carrier strike groups even the new GR Ford CVN-78 and their USMC Independent airwing platforms plus all the new coalition state of the art VSTOL carrier strike groups the Chinese will claim that they also drove those off as well 🤣🤣 in the meanwhile why don’t we have a UN Assembly vote on Chinas claim to own the South China sea and their mini china’s , aka sand castles ?
USA, the terrorist nation and terrorist Biden regime is definitely more trustworthy. Remember the terror attack on Nord Stream pipelines, unleashing of covid viruses and Spanish flu on the world, Iraq’s WMDs, Gulf of Tonkin attack, etc etc
The US and their money wars.
Well done America 🇺🇸
🤠 Win R they going 2 make a New Red Dawn🌅
Lol any southeast Asians supporting u.s… Sure China and south China sea dispute is annoying, but wait till U.S brings war to your doorstep… You’ll really understand what’s annoying lol… U.S isn’t poking the bear for your benefit. In fact they can’t be happier for you to go down with China together.
So USA is allowed in these international water but when China or other countries are there, it’s an issue?
Bullying? Who agrees the Americans are the biggest bully.
Chi Chi Ping Pong winnie the pooh emperor wannabe wants world domination, but he’s just a fatboy pignose face baby tantrum.
What the USA is doing in the world , stir up s…. , start wars , destroy innocent peoples lives and sell weapons , sad.
And got the nicest people
共产党 = 鼠王
This US govt everywhere they trying to destroy one country why is it like that….just few days it was there Toy MQ-9 being chased away n drowned….until this WAR loading they will understand their place… that’s not respect for one country
🖕🖕🖕 USA
A US PRESIDENT DENIED WAR CRIMES, BUSH. A FLAT OUT LIE THE WHOLE WORLD WATCHED on CNN. And I smoked MJ but DENIED inhaling. Point being lots of peeps deny thangs.😊
What are we just going to sit round and let them strike first
US stole Hawaii, a sovereign state. Return to rightful owner.
Tension risings hmmm 😮
The USA is a country that wants to go to war with anyone that doesn’t agree with them. They say their the peace keepers of the world. Who ever said that they were in control of the world to begin with…they did. All they do is spend money on weapons and military. They must be paranoid. Maybe if they would spend money on their own problems fixing their own country they wouldn’t be killing each other on a daily basis. USA is so corrupt it’s ridiculous. Fix your own country first, before trying to fix others.
Freedom of navigation claim by USA but they are not even the signatory of the treaty. What a big hypocrisy from USA side ! 😂😂😂
This is how idiot the Chinese promoting instability in the region.
If that evils country without going anywhere to creating trouble around the world. The whole world is feel much better for all people living peace.
Mr. Petraeus and his sort are just mouth pieces of US neocons. – German should give them home in Berlin. Worlds is change and these Petraeus will help German and European in a dark abyss.
Chinese Xi visit to Moscow Out comes will be felt for next 20 yrs. Unification of Russian and China alignment of interests and goals has taken place under our noses.
Frankly Biggest losers are Europeans-UK-German out this NATO expansion policies and picking a flight with Russia.
US is quickly losing their dominance in Global south countries. Multi-Polar world is becoming a reality. !
Chinese president Xi Jinping visiting Russian is more than, what is seen by the eye. Its much more, its dramatic, its historic, its never happened in history, “A union of Russia and China “- de facto union, aligning their strategic interests and goals for next 20Yrs. Unseen in human history.
US-EU-NATO proxy WAR via Ukraine on Russia has given the Chinese the greatest gift US -UK-EU, can give is unification of Russian and China alignment of strategic interests and goals with Xi Jinping completed it on his visit with Putin.
US-EU-UK propaganda over shadows the truth from Western society. Its just too dramatic for some viewers to understand in US-Europe and UK. !! UK-EU will be left in the cold , as USA look for a new path into Global south.
USA is not the problem ,it’s China who is threatening other countries by invading many areas in South East Asian Sea . Ask Singapore ,Thailand ,Indonesia or Philippines if you people don’t believe me.
It’s aggression if you are so far from home.
Paracels belonged to China.
Australia probably is kicking themselves today 😊 did anyone see the new nuclear underwater drones North Korea invented. I bet they didn’t cost 400 billion.
Under freedom of navigation proclaimed by US, please be advised that China is free to navigate sea or air anywhere North Atlantic Ocean with Cuba and Puerto Rico or with Mexico at Gulf of Mexico. Everything is fine, equality to all. Welcome.
Except China with about 20% of global population has about 30% of international waters fishing fleet. The greedy sods never care about the environment or anyone else.
The USA has been performing what it has promised since WWII. The military guarantees trade by patrolling trade lanes and eliminating the piracy that would happen if they weren’t there. How do you think the world economy has been functioning all years in which people feel safe transporting their goods overseas?
Would you seriously want China doing that, with the CCP running things? They wouldn’t do anything like sink your fishing boat, right?
You cannot believed what china keep saying, they are untrustworthy… Hehe, Philippines own that place…
Biden is keen to organize Wars & Gang Fights and this is getting out of control .
“Democracy” & ” Human Rights” are being used as a “Weapon of Mass Destruction” by the US politicians for Wars .
It is time for U.S. to stop all the Wars , and try to spend time to “Build Back Better” at home .
Obama once told us : Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to F—x things up !
Mabuhay US Naval Fleet 👍💪

Typical of American for not owning up 😢
*China🇨🇳 have border disputes with Taiwan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, India, Bhutan, Japan, Vietnam, Philippines.*
make border agreement & keep peace.
Japan is in the middle of the ocean but it has territorial disputes with Russia, North Korea, South Korea, China(mainland) and Taiwan (China).
I don’t believe anything China says. Even if they told the truth I wouldn’t believe it.
China in the wrong on this one,has been arbitrated in international body under Convention on Law of the Sea,China has to accept the decision and move on and stop trying to provoke unnecessary conflict.
Yet US didn’t sign the UNCLOS.
I think the sailors on the ships should hold up a big sign that says “Hello friends and fellow humans”.
Let’s all just be friends huh.
USA don’t have the right to say they are doing freedom of navigation because they are not even the signatory of the treaty .
Freedom of navigation and freedom of war
Is china still in the west philipine sea
China is full of lies. The West is stupid up to a point, but China lies so blatantly it can never be believed.
America is destined to neutralize dictatorships, if not America, Taiwan and the South China Sea have easily been taken over by China’s greed, and South Korea has become a sea of fire by North Korea. If there is no America the greed of China, Russia and other countries will not be controlled because there are no obstacles America’s role as a world police is really running, hitting dictator countries and robbers even though there are business issues but that makes sense because the police also need money to carry out their duties
China will not back down from the old colonizers
The US has no business in the south China sea.
This is all due to Obama’s retreat from the Pacific and degradation of the Navy under his presidency.
United States is just waiting for a good enough reason so they don’t look bad for destroying them lol
illegally or not, why would you deliberately sail to a disputed island near China?
AL Jazeera, mouthpiece for jihadists.
THEY ARE ALSO COMING IN AS IMMIGRANTS LOOKING FOR HELP!! NO NOT EXACTLY. I BELIEVE THEY GOT HERE BY BEING FLOWN HERE WITH BIDENS KNOWLEDGE. THEY SHOW UP AT THE BORDER ON OUR SIDE OF THE BORDER!! NEW CLOTHES & SHOES THEY DON’T LOOK HUNGRY OR SCARED. THEY ARE EITHER MILITARY SPECIAL OP’S OR SPECIAL IN TECHNOLOGY OR BOTH. BUT THEY ARE DEFINITELY NOT IMMIGRANTS.
THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM COMING IN LIKE THIS. ALL MEN. I BELIEVE I FIGURED OUT WHY BIDEN ISN’T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THE BORDER IS WE ARE SO BUSY WITH THE OBVIOUS PROBLEM!! THAT WE WON’T NOTICE WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON AND THAT’S THE CHINESE COMING IN THIS COUNTRY TO DO MAJOR HARM. SOMEONE NEEDS TO INTERVIEW THESE NOTHING BUT MEN COMING IN OR I BELIEVE THEY WILL SUCCEED IN THEIR PLANS!! I JUST PRAY 🙏 ❤ GOD KEEPS THAT HEDGE OF PROTECTION AROUND PRESIDENT TRUMP AND FAMILY. 🙏 THEY COULD BE COMING FOR HIM. BUT IF SO!!! IT WILL FAIL GOD IS IN CONTROL ❤ OF THAT SITUATION 🙏 ❤
Just sink the US Warship. We are tired of US aggression and lies.
TIME TO SPANK THE CHINEES
China is causing Taiwanese to starve from lack of fish, China has no ownership of the worlds international waters China is a cry baby that does everything it accuses others of. Like slave workers.
The Suez Canal and the Panama Canal are proof of international water. It’s disappointing that the Biden administration defends “activity” and doesn’t disclaim Sino “ownership” of space that has no fresh water. Beijing’s Cultural Revolution was NOT election reform! The history is that the two canals, the Tonkin, the Malaysian Straits, Somalia opportunists and much more do NOT exclude humanity from tropical fishing waters.
OK they keep threatening serious consequences bring it on quit yapping your mouth . All mouth no balls. US should take every business out of China teach them a lesson they will go back to making plastic toys and brooms.
It’s China they will wipe out your country so their human plague goes on.
The US seems to find itself in the middle of every world problem. Thats not what you want to do
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
Olympic truce called…
No good comes from devastation and death…
Sha Sha get more done through peace and friendship…
Just saying with a bow
“mooom he’s poking me! – No I’m not!”.
-When will the car pull over.
US NOW IS ALL OUT TO BLACKSEA / TO SIRIA TO SOUTH CHINA SEA..DESPRATELY WANT WAR WITH EVERYONE
What can US do? 😂😂😂
THIS IS WE KNOW THERE ALL WAYS LIKE THIS THESE ZIONIST ASHKANAZIN DEVIL 👿 CONGRESS AMERICA LIESE OUT OF CHINA COLONIES AGAIN 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
The US also denies blowing up NOrdstream 2 pipelines what is knew
US, Japan and Philippines to Start Attacking China Now.
早上好，希望大家一切安好
Paracels are not disputed.
Vietnam has already ceded the islands to the Chinese. So why is US trying to stir up problem with China ?
Saudi Arabia has renounced its friendship with the US and will go to the BRICS countries and thanks to the mediation of China, the Saudis are talking back to Iran and both countries want to improve their relations China wants peace the US wants war against China Dan they are dealing with two nuclear superpowers and their allies have to settle outstanding accounts with the US
There was an English officer in the 1 World War who loved Arabia very much and managed to unite the Arab tribes against the Turks and defeat them his dream was a free and strong Arabia
I think china should blow that ship out of the water
US just want to have a war with the Philippines, australia, japan, or taiwan fighting china on its behalf like ukraine and europe fighting russia right now.
China… Do you see what our country has become? Our president is a stumbling bumbling senile old man who poops his pants, fondles women and molests children. We have never been weaker as a country. We don’t deserve to be here. Please tell your friends to nuke us. Your best chance is before Biden is out of office. You won’t want to deal with president Trump! That’s a fact. So act quickly, before it’s too late. Give us what we deserve! I dare you. hahaha 😂
Aww look at the CCP crying again another final warning 😂😂😂😂😂😂
After China sailed a balloon over the United States.
East China sea duhhhh
Freedom of navigationusa is not asignatory
How about the chinese militia vessel in the coast of South America
USA has no right even to sail into disputed waters. a pure act of provocation by USA.
USA wants conflicts and war with China, Russia , Iran……
The only way to sell weapons to allies is to tell them the world is not safe and that there are conflicts everywhere.
Who will buy weapons if the world is safe and peaceful ?
USA is a merchant of death. 💣💣💣
