BBC har en historie om at det britiske skib HMS Albion har gennemført en gennemsejling af Det Sydkinesiske Hav for at understrege at Storbritannien står fast på at området skal reguleres af international lov.
The Chinese told HMS Albion to leave in “an aggressive manner”, taking position “irresponsibly close” to the ship, the BBC’s Jonathan Beale has been told.
The Royal Navy said it was conducting a freedom of navigation exercise “in full compliance with international law”.
But China said the UK had entered its territorial waters without permission.
A source told the BBC that a Chinese warship tailed the Albion from just 200 metres, while Chinese jets flew low over the British warship during the encounter.
For lidt baggrund om konflikten i Det Sydkinesiske Hav, er der en god introduktion i videoerne her.
