                      China’s new Coast Guard Law can escalate sea disputes, US warns

                      China’s recently enacted coast guard law could escalate maritime disputes, as its language could be used by Beijing to intimidate its neighbours in South China Sea, the US State Department warned.

                      GET THE SAFETY4SEA IN YOUR INBOX!

                      The new law, passed last month, allows for the first time Chinese coast guard to fire on foreign vessels and comes at a time of severe maritime sovereignty disputes of China with Japan in the East China Sea and with several Southeast Asian countries in the South China Sea.

                      During a regular briefing on Friday, State Department spokesman Ned Price said the US joins the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, and other countries in expressing concern with the law.

                      We are specifically concerned by language in the law that expressly ties the potential use of force, including armed force by the China Coast Guard, to the enforcement of China’s claims in ongoing territorial and maritime disputes in the East and South China Seas,

                      …he said.

                      He also noted that language in that law, including text allowing the coast guard to destroy other countries’ economic structures and to use force in defending China’s maritime claims in disputed areas, strongly implies this law could be used to intimidate the PRC’s maritime neighbors.

                      We are further concerned that China may invoke this new law to assert its unlawful maritime claims in the South China Sea, which were thoroughly repudiated by the 2016 Arbitral Tribal ruling. In this regard, the United States reaffirms its statement of July 13th, 2020 regarding maritime claims in the South China Sea.

                      Concluding, he stressed the United States reaffirmed a statement last July in which then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo rejected China’s disputed claims to offshore resources in most of the South China Sea as “completely unlawful.”
