中国驻东盟大使：美国在南海只会使东盟更分裂

　　【环球时报综合报道】“美国‘再平衡战略’在南海浑水摸鱼”，19日，新加坡《海峡时报》刊登中国驻东盟大使徐步的署名文章，批评美国人为制造和炒作南海的紧张局势，其目前的做法只能使东盟产生更严重的分裂，对本地区国家发出防止滑入“南海陷阱”的呼吁。

　　文章说，中国与一些南海沿岸国之间的领土主权和海洋权益争端已存在30余年。长期以来，中国与有关声索国一直共同应对分歧，管控风险，不让南海问题阻碍中国与有关国家双边关系及中国-东盟关系的持续发展。然而，自从美国推出所谓亚太再平衡战略后，南海问题就变得越来越突出。

　　文章举出美高官怂恿煽动令南海问题逐渐成为地区热点的例子说，美国大肆鼓动东南亚一些国家领导人在2012年东盟会议上讨论南海问题，企图绑架整个东盟对抗中国，结果造成东盟内部分歧加剧;在美国大力支持下，菲律宾决定抛弃同中国关于通过谈判解决南海问题的双边协议，将有关争议提交国际仲裁;2015年以来，美国打着维护南海“航行和飞越自由”旗号，开始从南海争议的幕后走向台前。

　　“美国的亚太再平衡战略让一些声索国产生了幻觉”，文章说，它们一厢情愿地认为，只要有美国撑腰，就能通过对抗解决南海问题。美国的动作与东南亚一些国家南海政策的变化在时机上绝非巧合。如今，南海问题已成为搅动东盟领导人会议和东亚峰会的一大热门话题，也已被炒作成影响东亚和平稳定的一大安全热点。从这个角度看，美国似乎达到了浑水摸鱼的目的。但从长远看，不会有任何一方从南海局势紧张中获益。

　　就在这篇文章发表的同一天，尼日尔外交部就南海问题发表新闻公报，支持中国在南海问题上的立场。“我相信，任何不抱政治私利或不带偏见的国家都会支持中方在南海问题上的正义立场”，中国外交部发言人华春莹20日在例行记者会上说，目前已有很多国家和阿盟这样重要的地区性国际组织公开发声支持中方立场。随着更多人了解南海问题经纬，将会有更多国家仗义执言，明确表明对中方在南海问题上立场的支持。(郭芳)
