NAVY DESTROYER SAILS NEAR ISLAND CLAIMED BY CHINA
The Navy destroyer USS Stethem conducted a “right of innocent passage” exercise Sunday near a bitterly disputed island occupied by China in the South China Sea.
The Stethem sailed within 12 nautical miles of Triton Island in the Paracel archipelago, also claimed by Vietnam and Taiwan. Twelve nautical miles is a standard international boundary extending offshore from all nations.
The U.S. has no official stance on the ownership of the islands. China has been building up reefs and turning them into islands, some with military fortifications.
