Title Proper | Freedom of navigation’ issue in Sino-US Relations |
Language | ENG |
Author | Yan, Li |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | The ‘Freedom of Navigation’ issue has been volatile and often influenced by Sino-US relations in recent years. This problem was rooted in different interpretation of the UNCLOS by China and the US. It has also reflected their different national Interests and maritime strategies. This issue has caused frequent frictions between the two sides and may lead to their future contest for sea power. At the same time, it also urges the both sides to set up new mechanism for confidence building that may help them to manage it in a more rational way. |
