- Summary:
- In 2012, China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy for the first time conducted maritime intelligence collection operations in the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) of the U.S. territory of Guam and the state of Hawaii, without providing advance notification, according to the U.S. Department of Defense. This activity runs counter to Beijing's own insistence that foreign militaries provide notification and receive approval prior to operating in China's claimed EEZ. The PLA publicly confirmed such operations on June 1, 2013 at an international defense forum in Singapore. Senior Colonel Zhou Bo of the Foreign Affairs Office, Ministry of National Defense stated China has "sort of reciprocated America's reconnaissance in our EEZ by sending our ships to America's EEZ for reconnaissance." Zhou also stated China has done so only "a few times," in contrast to the U.S and Japan's "almost daily reconnaissance" of China.
