Vietnam - U.S. bilateral ties

I wonder about that "high IQ" chinese didn't understood intention of USA with this behabiour. USA is very smart when they let China occupied island of Vietnam by force, becourse USA has been calculated carefully about that. There is reaon USA turn back to the region with new rolle.:welcome:


wow, what a fantasy, US played the strategy game 40 years ago:victory::rofl:
 
Military engagement

In the early morning of January 19, 1974, Vietnamese troops from HQ-5 landed on Duncan Island (Quang Hòa in Vietnamese) and came under fire from Chinese troops, after HQ-5 opened fire first on the Chinese troops stationed on the island while advancing toward the shores of the island. Three Vietnamese soldiers were killed and two others were injured. Outnumbered, the Vietnamese ground forces withdrew by landing craft, but their small fleet itself did not: instead, they drew up close to the Chinese ships in a tense standoff.

At 10:24 a.m., two Vietnamese ships, HQ-16 and HQ-10 opened fire against Chinese ships. Then, HQ-4, HQ-5 did the same thing. The ensuing sea battle lasted for about 40 minutes, with numerous vessels on both sides sustaining damage. The small Chinese ships maneuvered into the blind spots of the main cannons on the larger Vietnamese warships and succeeded in damaging all four Vietnamese ships, particularly the HQ-10. The Nhật Tảo (HQ-10) could not retreat because her last working engine was disabled in the battle: the ship's crew was ordered to evacuate, but her captain, Major [navy Lt. Commander] Ngụy Văn Thà, remained under fire and went down with his ship. HQ-16, severely shot by a friendly ship, the HQ-5, was forced to retreat westwards. Meanwhile, HQ-4 and HQ-5, were forced to retreat.

The next day, Chinese jet fighters and ground-attack aircraft from Hainan bombed the three islands, and were followed up with an amphibious landing force. The South Vietnamese Marine garrison was captured, and the naval force retreated to Đà Nẵng.

While the battle was going on, the Vietnamese fleet detected two Chinese reinforcing warships rushing to the area; China later acknowledged that these were the Hainan-Class submarine chasers #281 and #282. Despite reports that at least one Vietnamese craft had been struck by a missile, China insisted that no missile-bearing ships were involved in the battle. In addition, the South Vietnamese fleet also received warnings from the United States that their naval radar had detected additional Chinese guided missile frigates and MiG jet fighters on their way from nearby Hainan. South Vietnam requested assistance from the US Seventh Fleet, but the request was rejected.

that's what US will do for their allies,warn them that their enemies are coming.
 
Don't be naive, international court can do nothing, China now is one of several main players in the world.
If international court can solve it, Vietnam and Philipine should have sued China long ago

If China could sit on international law, I am sure they had invaded Taiwan, Senkaku Islands; they had invaded all Kashmir and swallowed whole East Sea (south china sea). I know they are waiting to do it, so the world should unite to prevent their intentions.
 
China is stupid student to copy threatening and bullying policy from imperialism.:P

Nope, we are imperialism from 2000 yrs ago, 中国 means central empire, do you remember you have been a part of China for thousand years? :china::bunny:
 
The reason why US want a close relationship with China in 70's is they want to utilize China to against Soviet Union, now for the similar reason they want to utilize Vietnam to against China. Frankly speaking, in my opinion China claim too much in South China sea, but you know this is a kind of strategy, what we should do now is come back to the table and divide the area without dispute, for those disputed area, we can set up a joint venture and share the oil, China is the biggest oil buyer in the world, have a good relationship with China is good for Vietnam.
Don't care about those, In the world, The small country rely on the big country, That is it rule, Nothing special. the important is thant china is ascending, and will soon match USA. And viet is close to china, Just before, The philipphine said the island are close to philiphine, Deng Xiaoping said Philippine also are close to China!!
And before the war between Russia and Georgia, USA also make promise they will support, But all people know the result.
Viet have the peace the peace initiative, But we have the war initiative, If we really want the kick viet out of South china sea by a war, Do viet have the power to stop china? All the world can know the result by their ***. USA will fight with china for Viet? Just happy your mouth here, USA don't care about you, You just a card, a inessential card. Here, You just be used, But you also use USA, India, all the world do know!!
