The Chinese navy has driven the American cruiser USS Chancellorsville out of the Spratly archipelago in the South China Sea. According to the Chinese side, the actions of the United States ship posed a "threat to the security" of the region. However, the US 7th Fleet denied Beijing's accusations and said they were defending "freedom of navigation." Similar incidents regularly occur between the Chinese and United States navies. According to experts, Washington deliberately sends warships to areas that China considers its territorial waters. The ultimate goal of the United States, analysts believe, is to draw Beijing into a long-term armed conflict that will bring down trade flows through the South China Sea.
