Chinese research ships in US Arctic draw Coast Guard response<\/h3>\n

By Zita Ballinger Fletcher<\/strong><\/p>\n

The U.S. Coast Guard responded last week to two Chinese research vessels that entered U.S. Arctic territory, amid what Coast Guard officials called \u201cincreased activity\u201d by such ships in the region in recent years.<\/p>\n

The Coast Guard deployed a C-130J Hercules aircraft from Air Station Kodiak in response to two Chinese research vessels, Ji Di and Zhong Shan Da Xue Ji Di, transiting the Bering Sea on Aug. 5, according to a release.<\/p>\n

The following day, on Aug. 6, the cutter Waesche responded to the Zhong Shan Da Xue Ji Di as it maneuvered above the Arctic Circle.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe U.S. Coast Guard\u2019s responses are intended to counter malign activities, defend sovereign interests, and promote maritime conduct consistent with international law and norms,\u201d the Coast Guard said in the release.<\/p>\n

The Coast Guard said it is currently monitoring five similar Chinese vessels in and around the U.S. Arctic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
