BEIJING, Aug. 21 (Xinhua) — Some external powers, through alliance-building and meddling in regional disputes, aim to maintain privileged position in the South China Sea and preserve maritime control for self-serving interests, according to a think tank report issued early this June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The report, titled “Making the South China Sea a Sea of Peace, Friendship and Cooperation: China’s Actions,” was released by Xinhua Institute, a think tank affiliated with Xinhua News Agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Noting that the South China Sea is a crucial international maritime corridor, the report highlights that the freedom of navigation and overflight in this region, as guaranteed under international law, stands as a fundamental consensus between China and other coastal states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, some countries’ growing interference through military and diplomatic channels undermines regional stability, it says, stressing that China consistently advocates for resolving differences through bilateral friendly consultations with relevant countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This report is part of a series of three reports on the South China Sea issue released by Xinhua Institute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The other two reports released on Thursday are titled “Incitement, Threats, and Lies — The Truth about External Forces Interfering in the South China Sea Issue,” and “Historical and Legal Basis of China’s Territorial Sovereignty and Maritime Rights in the South China Sea.” \u25a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
