While it seemed that the interest of all is being focused on Syrians, the last week revived the tension between China, USA and its allies.

The last days USA announced that they are going to send warships at the area of the artificial islands that China constructed illegally.   These artificial islands contest the rights of Malaysia, Vietnam, Philippines, Taiwan, the Sultanate of Brunei, and they also make US and Australia concern.

China was intending  to intrude in Syria, but is worried after the tension that is created again for the artificial islands.  Initially China reacted to the announcement of the Americans to send warships, but yesterday at the Beijing forum, the Chinese appeared more conciliatory, saying that no one should be worried about the artificial islands because they created them for touristic purposes.  Military analysts say that while Beijing has made progress on nautical  – cyber and satellite army issues, China is not yet ready to face USA and its allies.

But no one can predict the reactions of China in the near future.  So it does not exclude any surprise.  Some are wondering if this tension for the artificial islands was created after the announcement of China to help Russia at Syria.
