A ship of the Chinese Navy has seized a drone for civil use, started from an American ship that deals with oceanographic research, in the South Chinese Sea. The dynamics of the facts is not clear but it seems that the Chinese ship had crossed the US ship in international waters or, as says analyst Bonnie Glaser, in the waters of the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines. The gesture is almost certainly retaliated against the words of Trump and is probably an attempt to point out to the President-elect would be better to change the diplomatic line towards Beijing.
