China closes off an area of the South China Sea this week for military training.
Chinese Defense Minister Gen. Wei Fenghe speaks during the fourth plenary session of the 18th International Institute for Strategic Studies Shangri-la Dialogue, an annual defense and security forum in Asia, in Singapore, Sunday, June 2, 2019.
The China Maritime Safety Administration announced the drills were being held all day Sunday and for half a day on Tuesday in an area near China’s holdings in the Paracel island group. The waterway rich in fishing grounds through which passes an estimated $5 trillion in global commerce annually has become a global security hotspot, largely due to growing Chinese assertiveness in pressing its claims.
