China says opposed to U.S. arms sales to Taiwan

Thu, Dec 10 2009BEIJING (Reuters) - China successfully tested emerging military technology aimed at destroying missiles in mid-air, the government said, while state media warned ties with Washington would be hurt by U.S. missile sales to Taiwan.

The brief report on the "ground-based mid-course missile interception technology" from the state-run Xinhua news agency gave few details, and did not specify whether any missile had been destroyed in the test, staged on Chinese soil.

"The test has achieved the expected objective," said the report, without describing that objective.

"The test is defensive in nature and is not targeted at any country," it quoted the Chinese Foreign Ministry as saying.

The announcement came soon after the United States last week cleared a sale of advanced Patriot air defense missiles to Taiwan despite opposition from rival Beijing.

China's ire over U.S. arms sales to Taiwan shows no signs of escalating into outright military confrontation, but could cast a chill on relations with Washington at a time when both governments are also wary about trade disputes and economic strains.

China claims Taiwan is an illegitimate breakaway from mainland rule and opposes U.S. arms sales to the island as an intrusion into a domestic dispute.

MISSILES POINTED AT TAIWAN

The Patriot "PAC-3" missiles can destroy missiles in mid-air, and could be used against the thousand or more offensive missiles that Taiwan says China has along its coast facing the island.

A commentary from the Xinhua agency on Monday warned of broader fallout from the Patriot missile deal.

"Each time the United States has sold weapons to Taiwan, there has been huge damage to China-U.S. relations," said the commentary, issued separately from the report on the anti-missile test. "This U.S. arms sale to Taiwan will be no exception."

The commentary accused the Obama administration of betraying a commitment to respect each country's "core interests."

"Immediately halt weapons sales to Taiwan to avoid damaging cooperation between China and the United States in important areas," it said. It did not specify those areas.

China curtailed military-to-military contacts with the United States after then President George W. Bush notified Congress in October 2008 of plans to sell Taiwan a long-delayed arms package valued at up to $6.4 billion.

Senior Chinese People's Liberation Army officials have also urged Beijing to punish Washington and U.S. firms for arms deals with the disputed island.

"We have the power and ability to adopt counter-measures (against U.S. arms sales to Taiwan)," Jin Yinan, a PLA major-general and professor at China's National Defense University wrote in a Chinese newspaper, the Study Times, earlier this month. "We must use counter-measures to make the other side pay a corresponding price and suffer corresponding punishment."

PLA officials and reports in recent years have said developing anti-missile technology is one focus of defense spending, which has grown by double-digits over many years.

China has claimed sovereignty over self-ruled Taiwan since 1949, when Communist forces won the Chinese civil war and fleeing Nationalists gained control of the island. Beijing has vowed to bring Taiwan under its rule, by force if necessary.

The United States switched diplomatic recognition from Taipei to Beijing in 1979. But Washington remains Taiwan's biggest military backer and says it is obliged to help the island defend itself.

谁，那就看看你的这次表现了，呵呵

为什么？

因为，什么都不知道，拿什么写？

上次打卫星也差不多。过于高精尖，大多数记者看不懂就不敢瞎写。

瞧真正新闻自由下的新闻记者，素质高吧？值得学习吧？

(不许南方系盗我知识产权)

据美联社12日报道，五角大楼的一位发言人说：“我们事先未收到要进行导弹试验的通知”“我们监测到了从两个不同地点发射的导弹和一次外大气层空间撞击。我们正在向中方探询这次拦截试验的目的以及中国未来部署拦截系统的意图和计划。”

如果某国向中国发射核蛋被拦截，算不算中国遭受核攻击？会不会实施战略核报复？

上纲上线，宣传鼓动可不是只有咱独一份，遇到事情贴个标签，从自身利益角度进行解释是西方媒体的一贯手段，这次的中段反导试验，估计是一时不好归类，所以暂时失声，挖挖地道，看看可以跟哪座炮楼连上，要是进攻性系统，这会儿恐怕早就甚嚣尘上了。

俺猜测，最终还是会走上中国威胁论的老路上，从全面提升战力，局部优势，不平衡等角度入手，引申到威胁周边国家上，形成地区紧张，触发美国核心利益，甚至拉阿三出来吼两声。

目前西方，尤其是美国，可能还要费心思考虑一下如何避免与刚刚批准的对台军售拉上关系，即要牌坊，又不能耽误赚钱。等两天看看吧，估计会有声响出来的，不过对新意不报太大希望。

不是说媒体靠新闻挣钱吗？

这么个大事，不是新闻？媒体对钱突然不敢兴趣了？

只能说，

西方媒体控制太厉害了。

要等美宣部发报道口径呢。

估计口径需要统一一下下，免不了的中国威胁论
