Professor Wu Shicun 吴士存 is president, China SCS Research Institute. The USS Ronald Reagan and USS Nimitz returned to SCS and conducted military exercises on 17 July. This was the US navy aircraft carrier’s second exercise in the month of July. A few days earlier, the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made a statement on 13 July in which he not only reiterated the PCA decree on SCS four years ago, but also publicly opposed China’s position on the SCS issue. In response to the frequently malicious acts of the United States in SCS, 观察网 Guancha.cn or Oberver.com recently interviewed Professor Wu Shicun, and invited Professor Wu to express his views on various issues including the motives and impact of the US military operations in SCS, in the larger context of Sino-US relations.

This is the full interview of Professor Wu Shicun. Excerpts from the interview were published in ICS Translations Issue No. 3 - Editor
