China has deployed fighter jets to a contested island in the South China Sea, the same island where China deployed surface-to-air missiles last week,
Fox News were recently told by two prominent U.S officials. According to one of the U.S officials, the number of Chinese warplanes is under ten. The deepening conflict emerged as an embarrassing contradiction to a statement made by the Chinese Foreign Minister, Wang Yi, at the statement of Department.
Wang said yesterday when being hosted by the Pentagon, that he hoped “close up” military flights and patrols by U.S. Navy ships over the contested islands would end, consistent with the wishes of the U.S foreign Minister.
Fox news reported that Chinese Shenyang J-11s (“Flanker”) and Xian JH-7s (“Flounder”) have been spotted by U.S. intelligence on Woody Island in the past few days, the same island where China had sent two batteries of HQ-9 surface-to-air missiles whilst President Obama was hosting 10 Southeast Asian leaders in Palm Springs.

A scheduled visit to the Pentagon was canceled yesterday visit was canceled. It was not immediately clear which side canceled the visit. Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook because of a “scheduling conflict, according to Press Secretary, Peter Cook at a press briefing yesterday. The political conflict between a number of countries on the international scene, now seems out of control.
With the issue of sanctions against North Korea still pending, and the on going mayhem and disorder in Syria, there doesn’t seem to be any harmonious solution to the turbulent political situation rocking our world. Inflexibility, insecurity, and bitterness accounts for the underlying torrent of attacks, currently showing no signs of dwindling. And in the midst of all this, a U.S election campaign is in the works, though we wait to see wait the immediate future holds.
