This is interesting.

What's ahead between China and the US as a result of stealing the US Navy drone.

First it was located 56 miles west of the Philippine''s bay.

Second what's possible implications can possibly affect China?

Anyone?

(CNN)The Pentagon is demanding that China return an "unlawfully seized" underwater drone after a Chinese warship took the device from waters near a US oceanographic vessel.

"We call upon China to return our UUV immediately, and to comply with all of its obligations under international law," Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook said in a statement, using the abbreviation for "unmanned underwater vehicle."

This is the latest report from CNN

Thanks for the upload John. It's very clear, that's an international water where it was stolen.
China just seems too agressive if you ask me.

People consider Trump to be their only Savior so maybe he can save the drone.

I hope so CC, how are you? wave

But the truth us, I think regardless of who the elected president us? They'd have still stolen it.

It's a little disconcerting because the Philippines doesn't refute the Chinese at all.

If I remember right, Duterte declared in the Asian summit his coziness towards Russia and China.

Obama's a bit unstable as he's on the way out ...

He might do nothing or he might nuke China

Depends really ... how much trouble he wants to make for Mr Trump ?

I don't know if it's a question of unstability or simply nonchalant attitude because it's not his problem anymore.

But yes it can be a set up against Trump's leadership. A big effort to undermine his transition to the white house.

C I suspect that if there's any tension built up to something bigger then any act of aggression can spark a conflict.

Coincidentally China started live fire testing of their navy, maybe we should be aware very vigilantly on what's up their sleeve?

In an Unpresedented (sic) (Spelling error was fixed when the adults took over Trumps phone) turn of events, it is speculated that Chinas actions were in response to Trumps phone call to Taiwanese President, and have been in touch with the US State Dept to return it.
They stated it was an unidentified object, and when recognised for what it was, immediately got in touch with the US to return it. They have stated that Trumps bumbling has not helped , shock horror wow

What happens if they don't return it, the US will send another one I suppose.

There's probably many more if them out there after all that's the name of the game. The question is, why confiscate in a non protected water. It's in an international site.

Well that's an easy way to put it Crayons, don't you think they have a far more capable and or advanced one that makes ours like a toy?

Just wondering.

Asked and answered.
They didn't confiscate, according to them, as they contacted the US State Dept to return it, before Trump's UnPrecedential innocent tweet.
If it's a game, as you say, China are playing it really well and should be admired imo.

However I dont think its a game and I do think China knew exactly what they were doing and it was in response to Precedential wink elect's consistent insulting rhetoric towards them.

Poke a bear, you're going to get a reaction.

Well it looks like it's a very deserving response to a Presidential elect''s insults, but I would go beyond that. I think it's an invitation for a more military show off. China us definitely overdoing it.

Lol then what? I'd not go that far where we consider using any parts from them. No matter how superior looking their technology is, I wouldn't go that far.

As I say if you poke a bear.

Hopefully someone will reign Trumps continued insulting rhetoric towards China in, otherwise it could have catastrophic consequences.
