National Security Adviser of
United States Susan Rice has repeatedly raised its concerns about the risky
Chinese fighter intercepts on the United States surveillance flights with the Chinese
leaders and other senior administration officials.
The topic was relatively contentious
issues raised during the recent visit intended to lay groundwork for United States
President Obama's trip to Beijing this coming November.
In general the talks "helped
lay a really great foundation" for President Obama's trip, said by
a senior administration official who have briefed the reporters on the condition
of secrecy. President Obama is to attend Asian Pacific Economic Cooperation
forum leaders' summit and will meet the Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Washington said that Chinese
pilot acted recklessly during close intercept of the United States plane 220
kilometers south of Hainan, a home of Chinese naval airfields and a submarine
base. China denied any reckless flying and said it would continue to respond to
United States surveillance flights off its coast, as China believes it will be a
threat to its security.
