Beijing reasserted its right Thursday to build \u00abdefence\u00bb facilities in the disputed South China Sea, but declined to confirm reports it had installed new missiles on artificial islands it has built in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Washington warned that Beijing would face unspecified \u00abconsequences\u00bb over its militarisation of the South China Sea, and said it had raised the issue with China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

US network CNBC reported Wednesday that the Chinese military installed anti-ship and air-to-air defences on outposts also claimed by Vietnam and the Philippines over the last 30 days, citing sources close to US intelligence.<\/p>\n

If the information is verified, it could provoke renewed tensions between countries bordering the strategically vital maritime region.<\/p>\n

At a regular briefing on Thursday, Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying neither confirmed nor denied the deployment.<\/p>\n

\u00abChina’s peaceful construction in the Spratly archipelago, including the deployment of necessary national defence facilities, is aimed at protecting China’s sovereignty and security,\u00bb she said.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00abThose who don’t intend to violate (this sovereignty) have no reason to worry,\u00bb she said.<\/p>\n

The South China Sea issue has been brewing for years, with China, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia and Vietnam making competing claims in waters with vital global shipping routes and what are believed to be significant oil and natural gas deposits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In addition to land-reclamation efforts on reefs it controls and building civilian facilities there, China also has air bases, radar and communications systems, naval facilities and defensive weaponry in place including landing strips able to accommodate military planes.<\/p>\n

The new Chinese missiles were reportedly deployed on Fiery Cross Reef, Subi Reef and Mischief Reef, according to CNBC.<\/p>\n

They are all in the Spratly archipelago located in waters south of mainland China between Vietnam and the Philippines.<\/p>\n

Beijing’s territorial claims, based on its own historical records, have also pitted it against the United States.<\/p>\n

While Washington takes no position on the sovereignty claims, it has raised concerns that Beijing is \u00abmilitarising\u00bb the South China Sea.<\/p>\n

\u00abWe’re well aware of China’s militarisation of the South China Sea,\u00bb White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u00abWe’ve raised concerns directly with the Chinese about this and there will be near-term and long-term consequences.\u00bb<\/p>\n

The US Navy itself frequently sends warships and aircraft carriers to patrol the area.<\/p>\n

\u00abChina has to realise that they’ve benefited from the free navigation of the sea, and the US Navy has been the guarantor of that,\u00bb Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White said.<\/p>\n

\u00abWe will continue to do our operations.\u00bb<\/p>\n

China’s defence ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment but has previously stressed that the islands were \u00abpart of Chinese territory\u00bb and that it was up to China alone to decide what it does there.<\/p>\n
