Donald Trump, On Twitter, Says China Should Keep The Seized US Drone
Donald trump is the new president elect of United States.
President-elect Donald Trump says the US should let China keep the US Navy's unmanned underwater glider that it seized in the South China Sea.
Trump tweeted Saturday: "We should tell China that we don't want the drone they stole back.- let them keep it!"
His tweet came after the US military announced it had reached an understanding with China for the return of the underwater glider.
On Saturday morning, Trump took to Twitter to blast China for, as he described it, ripping the research drone out of the water.
According to the Pentagon, the drone was seized Thursday while collecting unclassified scientific data in the South China Sea, which China claims virtually in its entirety.
The US military says that through "direct engagement" with the Chinese, it's "secured an understanding" that China's navy will return an underwater glider seized in the South China Sea.
Peter Cook, a spokesman for US Defense Secretary Ash Carter, says in a statement that the US had registered its objection to what the US is calling an "unlawful seizure" of the unmanned submerged device in international waters.
