The United States refers to the 12 nautical miles offshore as international waters, so New York Bay beyond 12 nautical miles is international waters, and Chinese warships can also navigate freely.
How about it? The Americans can sink said Chinese warship IF it enters US waters and threatened them. They Chinese can do what you described out in International Waters and in fact, they do things like that all of the time ... mostly in aircraft ... as do the Russians.

Meanwhile, China a signatory of UNCLOS doesn't even respect the EEZ of its smaller South East Asian neighbours when they built those artificial islands. Who's the bigger hypocrite between USA and China then?
Sir, I don't know what kind of a Crack you re smoking but that definition is for an EEZ not international water. Any nation's territorial water extends up to just 12 nautical mile from the "land" (low tide). Anything outside = international water where any vessel can navigate as they wish to.

It’s because the Chinese want Taiwan, and if there’s not a QRF the US won’t have enough time to aid, in India, nobody is trying to take it, so the US doesn’t need to, same with Russia.

There is no scenario in which, without U.S. intervention, Taiwan could defend itself from a Chinese attack.

@@DowneastTackle around the same Tim US signed 4 joint declaration to regulate the triangle relations among US china and Taiwan. I would suggest you to read that as well
So the Chinese warship was close to its territorial waters but the US warship was thousands of miles away from its territorial waters. Who would you say is the one antagonising? The US has manipulated the current war in Ukraine, the US blew up Europes gas supply lines, the US was involved in the Sudan conflict and the US has bases all over the world in other peoples countries. Who do you think is the problem to achieving a stable peaceful world? Which country depends on their defence industry to survive commercially?
International waters means any and all ships are free to navigate any time without being harassed or threatened. Your neighborhood is what's inside your territorial waters.
United Nations recognise Taiwan as part of China. What is the US ship doing near to China waters in the first place? USA made a big fuss over China balloons near to USA. Before we blame other people, we have to first look at what we are doing to others.
And just to let you know,And Taiwan is an independent,sovereign and self --- governed Allied nation,country and state.And Taiwan is also an ally of the nation,country and state called the United States of America ( And God Bless America ) for more than 70 years or for many,many and many decades. And the very warmongering,the very " blood - thirsty " and the very trouble - making including the very hostile and the very aggressive nation and country called Communist Mainland China " has no single right to call Taiwan as their own territory. " And Communist Mainland China's greed has no bounds, @patricksim194!!!
Simple. Those are not Chinese waters, and Taiwan is not Chinese territory. That entire region was Japanese territory before WWII. The USA, not China, defeated Japan, taking occupying power of a lot of East Asia, including Taiwan and the Taiwan Strait. The USA never gave sovereignty of this area to any Chinese government.
china is invading my country, The U.S. is protecting smaller countries from your china`s bullying. The americans are protecting small countries from china`s aggression. We allowed americans to be in our sovereignty to keep those chinese from invading our territory. You chinese trespassers.

On one hand, US President is eagerly waiting to meet Chinese counter part, on the other hand, US and Canada tried to create a situation that anger the Chinese. Would this incident help on the bilateral relation between US and China?
No, we aren’t. China signed international treaties that clearly delineate where any nation’s influence over the seas ends, and China keeps calling international waters their own. It’s like if someone decided that the entire street in front of their house was now their property and wanted to blockade traffic and pull-up the water mains so they get exclusive access. Our presence there is to tell them to sod-off; they don’t get to ignore the rules THEY agreed to abide by. This goes beyond Taiwan’s interests as well. China is harassing every nation in Asia at this point.
best china acts civilized in conduct in international waters. A thermonuclear war is more pollution sadly than patrolling international waters like the South China Sea that china is illegally seeking to make by force its 'own exclusive sea'.

According to international navigation rules, the US ship was the stand-on vessel, while the Chinese ship was the give-way vessel and should have altered course to the starboard (to the right) and passed astern of the US ship.
This is not about navigation rules. This is about one country’s naval forces trying to push out uninvited military presence for violating its territorial waters. Taiwan straight is territorial waters of PRC or ROC, which both claim the entirety of China. You are allowed to conduct ‘innocent passage’ in these waters given that the host country allows it, in which case, naval drills are not allowed. There are similar passages like this, for example the Tsugaru Strait (津軽海峡, Tsugaru Kaikyō) which is a strait between Honshu and Hokkaido in northern Japan connecting the Sea of Japan with the Pacific Ocean. Ships are allowed to traverse through only in innocent passage with Japan’s permission.
@@DarksideChaotix nope they have not. Last time I checked, they still called themselves ‘Republic of China’ and their national map is essentially identical to that across the strait.
Next time, just ram them. Let the diplomats downplay the incident. An watch the prc get less aggressive after. This incident though and how it played out will just encourage more aggressive prc behavior as the west backed off which they will take as a sign of western weakness.
For the one keep claiming it is 'international water', and therefore, the US warship can do whatever they want, I would like to make a simple analogy to illustrate my point. Let me go to the front of your house, climb on to a lamppost. Then I use a telescope to peek into your bedroom or your kids bedroom. Although, where I am is totally public space, would you call the cop or not?
the rules of navigation: pass on the port side for example. However, the fundamental of the rule is quite simple: when collides, both sides are both guilty. (not equally but both) Hence, warship of China and the US can literally do whatever they deem fit as long as there is no collision.
How would the Canadians like it if Chinese warships were sailing a few hundred yards in international waters off the coast of Vancouver? It’s hard to blame the Chinese for viewing this constant flow of war ships off their coast as provocation.
Any country in the world can sail through international waters do not be so stupid, cruise ships and freighters, bulk carriers, etc, do it all the time.
If the Chinese want to sail in international waters they're free to do so. Russian fighter jets fly around the northern Canadian border all the time, the Canadian military would of course keep a close eye on that, but they never acted unprofessionally.
@@davidhynes Of course they can sail in international waters. But when there is a constant stream of warships sailing off China’s coast, one would have to be pretty stupid to not view this as provocation. If someone drives up and down the public road in front of your house all day long, you’d probably be pretty pissed.
@@tonfie Did China fly close to Canadian border all the time? Why then are Canadian war ships sailing along the Chinese coast? Are Canadians just following the orders of their puppet master?

@@lucdallaire9047 The United States says that 24 nautical miles offshore are international waters
The United States refers to the 12 nautical miles offshore as international waters, so New York Bay beyond 12 nautical miles is international waters, and Chinese warships can also navigate freely.

How about China navigate their warship off the coast of US and say, oooh American war ships nearly collided with ours
Difference is that American ships would not have done the same thing.
Chinese ships are free to sail wherever they wish, as long as they don't enter American territorial waters.

The United Nations has applicable agreements that clearly define “international waters” and under which international ships and planes are allowed to freely pass through parts of the Taiwan Strait that lie outside a 24-nautical mile zone from any coastline.
@@DowneastTackle agreed but if you sail your warship thousands miles away to other people’s doorstep it is still an act of aggression even it was in international water
@@DowneastTackle I think the OP does not understand that international waters are patrolled in order to protect international trade, which China used to benefit from, prior to their economy collapsing.
@@amos325 in 1979, Congress passed the Taiwan Relations Act, which regulated ties between the American people and Taiwan and added in it that the president had to consider defending Taiwan if the PRC used force because, during the negotiations, China refused to promise they wouldn’t use force.Taiwan cannot defend itself against the PRC. There is no scenario in which, without U.S. intervention, Taiwan could defend itself from a Chinese attack. It becomes very important for deterrence or stability in the region for all to believe that the United States is going to come to Taiwan’s aid.
@@DowneastTackle around the same Tim US signed 4 joint declaration to regulate the triangle relations among US china and Taiwan. I would suggest you to read that as well

According to international navigation rules, the US ship was the stand-on vessel, while the Chinese ship was the give-way vessel and should have altered course to the starboard (to the right) and passed astern of the US ship.
This is not about navigation rules. This is about one country’s naval forces trying to push out uninvited military presence for violating its territorial waters. Taiwan straight is territorial waters of PRC or ROC, which both claim the entirety of China. You are allowed to conduct ‘innocent passage’ in these waters given that the host country allows it, in which case, naval drills are not allowed. There are similar passages like this, for example the Tsugaru Strait (津軽海峡, Tsugaru Kaikyō) which is a strait between Honshu and Hokkaido in northern Japan connecting the Sea of Japan with the Pacific Ocean. Ships are allowed to traverse through only in innocent passage with Japan’s permission.

For the one keep claiming it is 'international water', and therefore, the US warship can do whatever they want, I would like to make a simple analogy to illustrate my point. Let me go to the front of your house, climb on to a lamppost. Then I use a telescope to peek into your bedroom or your kids bedroom. Although, where I am is totally public space, would you call the cop or not?
the rules of navigation: pass on the port side for example.
However, the fundamental of the rule is quite simple: when collides, both sides are both guilty. (not equally but both) Hence, warship of China and the US can literally do whatever they deem fit as long as there is no collision.
How would the Canadians like it if Chinese warships were sailing a few hundred yards in international waters off the coast of Vancouver? It’s hard to blame the Chinese for viewing this constant flow of war ships off their coast as provocation.
Any country in the world can sail through international waters do not be so stupid, cruise ships and freighters, bulk carriers, etc, do it all the time.
As long as they’re in international waters it doesn’t matter. The Russians sail spy ships off the U.S. coast as they’re legally allowed to do.
If the Chinese want to sail in international waters they're free to do so. Russian fighter jets fly around the northern Canadian border all the time, the Canadian military would of course keep a close eye on that, but they never acted unprofessionally.
@@davidhynes Of course they can sail in international waters. But when there is a constant stream of warships sailing off China’s coast, one would have to be pretty stupid to not view this as provocation.
