China has warned
India to halt joint energy projects with Vietnam in the South China Sea even as
Beijing takes steps to reduce tensions with Hanoi and co-operate more closely
in oil and gas exploration in the disputed waters.
In a joint
statement issued on Saturday at the conclusion of a high-profile visit to China
by Nguyen Phu Trong, the head of Vietnam’s ruling Communist party, Beijing and
Hanoi said they would “actively boost co-operation” in offshore oil and gas
exploration and exploitation as well as speed up negotiations to find a
peaceful settlement to their long-running dispute.
But Beijing also
publicly castigated Hanoi and New Delhi for an agreement in which India’s
state-owned Oil & Natural Gas Corp will work with its counterpart
PetroVietnam
to develop oil and gas assets in parts of the South China Sea that
Vietnam claims as its territory.
A front-page
editorial published in an important official Chinese newspaper warned “India’s
energy strategy is slipping into an extremely dangerous whirlpool,” and,
Reuters reported, said India should “turn around at the soonest opportunity and
leave the South China Sea.”
The editorial in
China Energy News, published by official Communist Party mouthpiece the
People’s Daily, also said “challenging the core interests of a large, rising
country for unknown oil at the bottom of the sea will not only lead to a
crushing defeat for the Indian oil company, but will most likely seriously harm
India’s whole energy security and interrupt its economic development.”
On Friday, Liu
Weimin, a spokesman for China’s foreign ministry, insisted that China had
“indisputable sovereignty” over the waters in question and warned off India,
saying New Delhi and Hanoi should “instead take positive steps to ensure peace
and stability in the South China Sea.”
The positive mood
music from Mr Trong’s trip to China last week, where he met his counterpart Hu
Jintao and other key leaders, was interrupted by Vietnam’s decision to sign an
oil and gas exploration agreement with India on Wednesday, during a visit by
Vietnam’s president Truong Tan Sang.
The Communist
neighbours appear keen to repair relations, which fell to the lowest point in
recent years in May and June after Hanoi claimed Chinese ships had sabotaged
Vietnamese-chartered oil exploration vessels that were operating within its exclusive
economic zone
.
China claims the
South China Sea in its entirety, rejecting partial claims by Vietnam, Brunei,
Malaysia, the Philippines and Taiwan over the area, which is thought to contain
substantial oil and gas reserves and encompasses key global trade routes.
Vietnam is trying
to find a delicate balance between assuaging China, its large, fellow-Communist
neighbour, and encouraging other powers such as India and the US to help keep a
check on Beijing’s grand maritime claims and increasing naval might.
One senior Western
diplomat in Hanoi warned that it will be difficult for China and Vietnam to
live up to the rhetoric of their latest agreement that aims to resolve their
simmering maritime row.
“It’s a short-term
fix to reduce tensions before things heat up again,” he said.
In recent years,
Asian nations become ever more concerned about what they perceive to be China’s
growing naval assertiveness in the region. The rising tensions have also attracted
the attention of Washington. Hillary Clinton, US secretary of state, angered
Beijing last July [2010] by insisting that the South China Sea was of strategic
importance to the US and offering to act as a mediator.
And, in August,
India was driven to speak out publicly in defence of freedom of navigation in
the area after the Financial Times revealed that a Chinese naval vessel had challenged
an Indian warship
while it was travelling between two Vietnamese
ports on a friendly visit.
New Delhi had
previously kept quiet about Chinese diplomatic protests over ONGC’s
co-operation with Vietnam’s state-owned oil and gas monopoly, PetroVietnam, in
two blocks off the coast of southern Vietnam.
But, since the
naval incident, New Delhi has publicly brushed off Beijing’s complaints about
ONGC.
