US Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia and the Pacific Daniel Russel on Friday tried to justify surveillance missions by US patrol aircraft, pointing to alleged Chinese military buildup and lack of transparency surrounding it. Last month, China called on the United States to halt spying flights in East Asia if it wanted to repair the damaged ties between Beijing and Washington. The request followed an August 19 incident in which the Pentagon said a Chinese military jet made several close passes near a US Navy plane, coming within 30 feet (9 meters) of it at one point.(presstv)
