China maintained sovereignty over the South China Sea Islands were exercising their legal rights.

中国驻美使馆：南海不应成为地缘政治博弈场|南海|驻美使馆_新闻资讯

　　原标题：中国驻美使馆：南海不应成为地缘政治博弈场

　　南海不应成为地缘政治博弈场

　　--驻美国使馆发言人就南海问题致函《纽约时报》

　　【环球网军事6月1日报道】2016年5月25日， 中国驻美国使馆发言人朱海权以《南海不应成为地缘政治博弈场》为题致函《纽约时报》评论部，阐明中方在南海问题上的有关原则立场，并对该报5月21日题为《在南海比拼胆量》社论中的错误言论予以批驳。信函于6月1日在该报评论版刊登。全文如下：

　　中方维护对南海诸岛的主权是行使自身合法权利。第二次世界大战后，中国根据《开罗宣言》和《波茨坦公告》收回了对南沙群岛和西沙群岛的主权。但自上世纪70年代开始，一些国家开始非法侵占中国南沙群岛部分岛礁。

　　解决南海争议的唯一出路是直接当事国进行谈判协商。中国已经通过和平谈判同14个陆上邻国中的12个签订了边界条约。解决南海问题也应采取这个办法。

　　在寻求外交解决的同时，中方一直保持克制。中方有关岛礁建设都是用于和平目的，不会对航行和飞越自由造成任何影响。中方不参与、不接受菲律宾单方面提起的仲裁也是依据国际法办事。

　　关于《纽约时报》有关社论中提到的事件，中方掌握的情况是，由于美方军机在中国沿海实施抵近侦察活动，中方军机对其进行了跟踪监视，并一直保持安全距离。中方有关操作完全符合安全和专业标准。而美方军机则是试图威胁恫吓，是不安全、不专业的。

　　南海不应成为地缘政治博弈场。我们希望美方停止炫耀武力，为推进对话谈判发挥负责任、建设性作用。
