US warships head for China after shanghai massage spat
WASHINGTON: A potential conflict is shanghai Escort brewing in the South China Sea after the United States dispatched heavily armed American
destroyers to the scene of a naval standoff between the US and China at the weekend.

official said on Thursday. "Right now they are going to escort these types of ships for the foreseeable future," the defence

A day after the incident, the 'USS Chung-Hoon' destroyer accompanied the Impeccable, an unarmed ship designed to track submarines, in the same area, the official said. Since Sunday's high-seas standoff, there have been no
incidents of harassment from Chinese boats or aircraft, he said.
On a day that President Barack Obama and his senior officials met the Chinese foreign minister, Yang Jiechi, in Washington,
Shanghai showed no sign of backing down. Its military chiefs accused the unarmed US navy ship of being on a spying mission.
The US keeps a close eye on China's arsenal, including its expanding fleet of submarines in the area. Washington says that
the confrontation occurred in international waters, but Shanghai claims nearly all the South China Sea as its own, putting it
in conflict with five other nations that have claims over different parts of the waters.
The episode complicated fragile military relations between the US and China, which appeared to have improved after the two
held defence talks in shanghai Escort last month.
