U.S. warship sails in disputed South China Sea


(MENAFN) The U.S. military said one of its warships has sailed near the disputed Scarborough Shoal claimed by China in the South China Sea, which is expected to anger Beijing at a time of tense ties between them.

The busy channel is one of a growing number of arguments in the U.S.-China relationship, which also include a trade war, U.S. sanctions and Taiwan.

China has hit a more aggressive tone in its trade war with the United States on Friday, which later unveiled fresh retaliatory tariffs.
