A Chinese warship came almost together with a US guided missile cruiser. The Chinese had tried to stop the USS &#8220;Cowpens&#8221; &#8211; the Americans had to dodge.<\/h1>\n<p>A US guided missile cruiser is almost collided in the South China Sea with a Chinese warship. According to U.S. military information the Chinese ship tried to stop the USS &#8220;Cowpens&#8221;. The U.S. Navy ship had to take evasive action &#8220;to avoid a collision,&#8221; a spokesman for the Pacific Fleet said loudly U.S. troops magazine &#8220;Stars and Stripes&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>After a communication could be established from bridge to bridge, the Chinese ship had also changed its course, explained one U.S. military official. Why it came to the incident, is still unclear.<\/p>\n<p>The incident took place on 5 December in international waters near the new Chinese aircraft carrier &#8220;Liaoning&#8221;. On the day U.S. Vice President Joe Biden was visiting Beijing. The U.S. government had the incident &#8220;high-level&#8221; raised with the Chinese government, wrote the magazine &#8220;Stars and Stripes&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h2>Asean officials are calling for a peaceful solution<\/h2>\n<p>Because of territorial disputes between China and its neighbors, the situation in the South China Sea is similarly strained in the East China Sea disputed with Japan , as in the sea area. China raises far-reaching territorial claims in the sea area . The &#8221; Liaoning &#8220;, which has only been used for training purposes , crosses for the first time in the South China Sea . Beijing has announced there set up an air defense zone .<\/p>\n<p>In the region , tensions have recently intensified after China had proclaimed an air defense zone around a disputed archipelago in the East China Sea. The area is also claimed by Japan. China&#8217;s declaration came in Japan and South Korea to sharp criticism. The U.S. accused the government in Beijing before a provocation. In addition, Japan , South Korea and the U.S. were still unannounced fly military aircraft through the area , so they ignored the air defense zone effectively . Biden had criticized before his departure to Beijing in early December the establishment of the zone as a &#8221; provocative action &#8221; .<\/p>\n<p>Representatives of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations ( Asean ) have spoken at a meeting in Tokyo this Saturday for the freedom of the seas and the air space. In a statement , the members called for a peaceful solution of conflicts.<\/p>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #f00;\">Error, group does not exist! Check your syntax!
