Sheer bullshit. When the US created Japan ADIZ, did they consult us? That is a question you need to answer in itself. In fact, China and Russia never recognized Japan ADIZ.It is laughable that you think that was the gist of my argument. But then difficulties of comprehension of complex arguments seems to be normal for the Chinese members here anyway.
Like I said, an ADIZ is a declaration of increased and exceptional authority and controls of an area of international airspace. This declaration treads the fine line between excising this area from international airspace and make it an extension of one's own territorial airspace. When the US did it for North America, of course there were anxieties from other countries precisely because of that fear, but the US and Canada made clear the limits, area and rules wise, plus every country realize that given the geography of the Western Hemisphere countries, it is easy to enter Central and South American countries without even touching the North American ADIZ.
It goes this way: An ADIZ is not a mandatory thing to have but if a country decides to create and maintain one, prior to the creation of such, extensive analyses must be done to see if one's proposed ADIZ intrudes into foreign territorial airspace and/or existing ADIZ, analyses of air traffic corridors and potential deviations within, the rules and their scope of the new ADIZ, the response capabilities, and finally, how about a simple gesture of courtesy to the neighbors?
Chinese decision on ADIZ not a wise course of action: Hagel | Business Standard
This was sheer incompetence and disrespect to international courtesy from China.
As a matter of fact, there was report from Korea that prior to our creation of ADIZ, we did consult South Korea a few week earlier and our ADIZ establishment paper got its way to Japan.
As far over overlapping, Japan unilaterally extending of its ADIZ overlapping with Taiwan ADIZ in 2012, did the world make a big fuss over it? No. So now why all of a sudden we did and they start crying? You see, playing this double-game ain't working with us. If you want to be objective, act like one. Then we might "reconsider" our approach to international courtesy.
Irrelevant question. It will be the first and won't be the last.Answer the question: Is this China's first ADIZ or not?
As we have said and it's time you need to get through your thick brain. We consider an ADIZ an extension to monitor and protect our national airspace and never consider it a sovereign airspace. What we will do if an unidentified plane in our ADIZ zone depends on the threat perception, the same as what the US would do.Even if there was an ADIZ back then, the US would still be within international laws and rights since the recon flights were conducted in international airspace. The most China could have done was to escort the EP-3 while it conduct its mission, no different than what we did with the Soviet bombers outside Alaska. But from the way you talk, you already consider an ADIZ territorial airspace. Congratulations on your feeble understanding of the issue.
Unfortunately, tragic happens when one country playing a double-game is not obeying the same rule they are set out to preach. My friend, you see... we always consider all strategic option to limit you and your ally advantage in our space.My prediction is that despite obedience to the ADIZ rules, there will be a measure of incompetence and arrogance on the Chinese part that will result in a tragedy. If the Chinese members here is a reflection of China, there will be a tragedy.
