CTV: China fighters buzz Canada warship in East China Sea: report
A report says two Chinese fighter jets buzzed a Canadian warship operating in international waters in the East China Sea at a time of heightened tension between Beijing and Ottawa.
Canadian Global Affairs Institute fellow Matthew Fisher wrote that the Su-30 fighters flew within 300 metres of the bow of the frigate HMCS Regina.
Fisher, who was aboard the ship, said that although the display was more aggressive than previous encounters between the Canadian Navy and Chinese warplanes, it was not considered dangerous.

ReplyDeleteLike dealing with self centered children. That's my ocean. That's my island now. This is a society that needs a bloody nose now and then.
