China warns UK over basing aircraft carrier in Pacific
China’s ambassador to London has warned Britain against stationing a new aircraft carrier in the Pacific, arguing it would be a “very dangerous move” in a newspaper interview published Saturday.
The Times reported this week UK military planners have hatched plans to station the HMS Queen Elizabeth carrier in the Pacific as part of an international alliance to counter China. But the possibility of basing the carrier there more permanently comes as tensions between London and Beijing are rising over a host of issues, and as US-China relations also deteriorate markedly.
Liu Xiaoming called the move a “disappointing and wrong decision” and has predicted it will sap billions of pounds of investment in the UK from China’s firms.
