[QUOTE="Donald, post: 1434, member: 1"] China has claimed that two U.S. military aircraft flew through the Taiwan Strait on Tuesday, Jun 28th, according to the SCS Probing Initiative (SCSPI). The SCSPI claimed that a U.S. Navy (USN) EP-3E Aries II electronic warfare and reconnaissance aircraft were "diving into the Taiwan Strait" and claimed that they were supporting the operation of a United States Navy (USN) surface ship. [ATTACH type="full" width="1027px"]353[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]354[/ATTACH] The statement from the SCS Probing Initiative said "USN EP-3E [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/AE1D94?src=hashtag_click']#AE1D94[/URL] is diving into Taiwan Strait this morning on June 28, which is likely to support the operation of USN surface ship". Another statement by the SCSPI on their Weibo account said that a U.S. Air Force Boeing RC-135W Rivet Joint electronic surveillance aircraft that day had also flown through the Taiwan Strait, the East China Sea as well as the Yellow Sea. They theorized that the American aircraft had been collecting electromagnetic spectrum signals from Chinese air and sea platforms. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin has said that there is "no such thing as international waters" in the Taiwan Straits and said that China has sovereignty, sovereign rights, and jurisdiction over the entire Taiwan Straits, and claims that vessels and aircraft passing through the straits are violating China's territorial sovereignty.
