In response to the US Navy's newly released investigation report on the collision of the US "Connecticut" nuclear submarine last month, foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin again urged the US side to explain the relevant situation of the accident in detail and fully respond to the concerns and doubts of countries in the region. At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: the US Navy released the investigation report on the collision of the US "Connecticut" nuclear submarine last month. The report said that the submarine was seriously damaged because it hit an "unknown seamount" and did not collide with other ships. What is China's response to this? Wang Wenbin said that China has repeatedly expressed serious concern about the accident and asked the United States to take a responsible attitude and make a detailed explanation to give a satisfactory explanation to the international community and regional countries. "What we can see is that one week after the accident, the US side issued an ambiguous statement saying that the nuclear submarine hit an unidentified object. Nearly a month after the accident, the US side said that it hit an" unknown undersea mountain "and deliberately blurred the location of the accident into the so-called" international waters of the Indian Pacific region ". It was unclear about the navigation intention of the nuclear submarine, the specific location of the accident There has never been a clear explanation of the serious concerns and doubts of the outside world, such as whether it is in the exclusive economic zone or even the territorial sea of other countries, whether it has caused nuclear leakage and damaged the marine environment. This has fully exposed the opacity and irresponsibility of the US side, "he said. Wang Wenbin said that China once again urges the United States to explain in detail the relevant situation of the accident and fully respond to the concerns and doubts of countries in the region. "The key is to stop sending warships and planes to stir up trouble, provocation and show off force, and stop acts that harm the sovereignty and security of other countries. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be no fewer and only more such accidents," he said. (reporter Zhu Chao, warm) (outlook new era)
