US expects more cooperation with India in South China Sea FMTNews FMTWorld
US diplomat for East Asia Daniel Kritenbrink said there would be greater collaboration between the US, India, Japan and Australia in the South China Sea.
The US has seen a “clear and upward trend” of Chinese “coercion” in the disputed waters, Daniel Kritenbrink told Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies. “We will welcome cooperation with any country that embraces that vision. That of course includes India,” Kritenbrink said. China claims almost the entire sea as its territory and says disputes should be left to countries in the region to settle without outside interference.
The US has been seeking to revive direct military-to-military contact with China to avoid misunderstandings that could lead to unintended conflict, but China has resisted this.
