(FNA)- The People's Liberation Army issued a warning to its US counterpart, with a Spokesperson for the military's Eastern Theatre Command reporting on Wednesday that Chinese forces tracked and monitored the USS John McCain destroyer as it sailed through the Taiwan Strait earlier in the day.
The spokesperson accused the Pentagon of sending the "wrong signal" to Taiwanese secessionists, "endangering the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait", and the stability of the region as a whole, RIA Novosti reported.
Eastern Theatre Command is one five theatre commands delineated by the PLA, and is responsible for six Chinese mainland provinces including Shanghai, Taiwan (which Beijing considers a renegade province) and the East Sea Fleet. Along with Taiwan, its area of responsibility includes the East China Sea.
The PLA Spokesperson's comments follows the US Navy's decision to sail the USS John McCain guided missile destroyer through the Taiwan Strait in what the Navy announced was a "routine" transit earlier in the day....
