China warns US to keep out of Taiwan

A ROW between China and the US over port visits to Hong Kong has extended into a renewed move by Beijing to prevent foreign naval vessels sailing through the 180km-wide Taiwan Strait.

The first of a series of incidents causing friction between the countries came last month, when two US minesweepers, the Patriot and the Guardian, were caught in a tropical storm in the South China Sea.

They sought shelter in Hong Kong's deep harbour, but their request was rejected.

The next incident happened as the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk and its eight escort ships, which had been at sea for weeks, neared Hong Kong for a long-planned port visit for Thanksgiving Day on November 22.

China suddenly denied the ships access, and they returned to their base in Yokosuka, Japan. China reversed the decision only when the ships had sailed.
