【禁闻】撤钻井平台 争军队控制权内斗结束?

【新唐人2014年07月18日讯】7月15号,中共提前一个月将“981钻井平台”从中、越争议海域移走,因为“981平台”在西沙群岛近两个月来,引发了中、越两国的对峙和冲突。中共这一突然撤退举动也招来不少议论。评论认为,两个月前,中共把耗资10亿美元的石油钻井平台移到西沙,本来就只是中共内斗中,双方为争夺对军队的控制权,讨好军中鹰派,以及转移国内矛盾的需要,现在随着对军队控制权争夺的结束,钻井平台再放置在有争议的领域就没有必要了。

7月15号,引发中、越两国对峙近两个半月的“中海油981钻井平台”突然撤离,返回海南岛附近海域,撤离日期与早先宣布的计划提早了一个月。中共外交部声称,撤走钻井平台的原因是台风季节即将开始,钻探作业已经完成,与外界因素没有关系。

而越南海警队官员表示,越南将让本国船只继续留在那个地方,并密切关注钻井平台的动向。

时政评论员蓝述:“从南海撤出来,主要的原因是中共高层对军方控制权的争夺已经基本告一段落,因为在南海、或者在中国周边地区制造紧张局势,它一个很大的目的就是高层在讨好军方的鹰派,因为他本来就不是真正想打,本来也不是真正缺那油田,有争议的这些领海上去钻,即使钻出来油,你送不送的回去啊?”

时政评论员蓝述指出,目前前中共党魁江泽民在军中的党羽,基本上已经被中共军委主席习近平收拾完毕。前一阵子,江泽民在军中的实权派——徐才厚落马,江派另一军头——郭伯雄,也因为“涉腐”被关押在“秦城监狱”。

7月10号,美国联邦参议院通过“412号决议案”,要求中国将“981钻井平台”和护航船只撤离南海海域,恢复南海原状,敦促中国节制执行东海防空识别区的宣示。

因而,有网友和媒体认为,中共撤走钻进平台是听了美国政府的话。

南海领土被侵占不是最近一两天的事情,中共当局过去为什么默不作声,而正当中国国内大力反腐的时候,却突然高调起来? 是谁故意挑起的?有位网友说,当腐败集团被国内民意聚焦的时候,国际纷争就应运而生。

大陆网络作家荆楚:“有网友推测,把钻井平台移到比较敏感的区域,可能是江泽民体系给习近平制造难堪,撤掉,可能是习近平他们认为这个事情搞得过火了,因为共产党的军队是镇压老百姓的,是党卫军,遇上外敌的话,他们立即尿湿了裤裆的。”

据大陆官媒报导,截至6月7号,越方现场船只最多时达到63艘,冲闯中方警戒区及冲撞中方公务船,累计达1416艘次。

而5月中旬,数千越南人因为中国钻井平台越界事件,对包括台湾和中国在越南的企业进行打、砸、抢、烧,造成300多名中国公民和台湾商人死伤,并造成重大财产损失。

有消息指称,在钻井平台撤离之前,菲律宾正在筹划与越南联合,要与中共在南海决一死战。而越南也正在南海问题上寻求美国的帮助。

台湾“政治大学国际事务学院”教授丁树范:“有一种就是我有办法把你整个压制下去,那显然这部分中国不太容易,因为从菲律宾、越南等等到日本,过去这两年给中国带来蛮多问题了,既然他如果没有办法把他压制下去,他肯定要采取比较和缓的方式,让周边国家不至于跟他完全站在对立面。”

《中国石油报》引述一名越南学者的话说,中国撤离是“迫于越南人民军的震慑力”。

而越南外交部发言人黎海平说,“越南要求中国,勿将海洋石油981或其他钻油平台,再带进越南第143油气区块或任何越南海域”。

Oil Rig Withdrawn From Disputed Waters.
A Sign Xi Jinping Is In Control?

China has moved oil rig, Haiyang Shiyou 981, away from
disputed waters off Vietnam.

This drilling rig near the Paracel Islands has aroused
tension in the two countries for more than two months.

The sudden move triggered hot discussion.

Commentators say that China had previously towed
the US$1 billion rig to the Paracel Islands,
to meet the need for seizing military power internally
to curry favor with the War Hawks in the military,
and divert attention from domestic conflict.

Now the process of securing military power has ended,
it becomes unnecessary to keep the oil rig in disputed waters.

On July 15, the oil rig reportedly returned to
the Hainan Islands area.

The move is one month ahead of the mid-August schedule.

China’s Foreign Ministry said it was because
the typhoon season begins soon.

The rig has finished drilling and the move had “no relation
to any outside factor”.

The Vietnamese coastguard said they would stay
in the area to closely observe the situation.

Lan Shu, current affairs commentator: “The reason for moving
away from the South Sea,
is because the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) internal
struggles over seizing military power have finished.

The main reason the CCP created the previous tension was
to curry favor with military War Hawks.

In reality, the CCP neither wanted to fight,
nor lacked oilfields.

Even had they drilled the oil out of disputed waters,
could they send the oil home?”

Lan Shu says that so far clearing out Jiang Zemin’s allies
from the military is almost completed.

Not long ago, Xu Caihou, a Jiang faction member
who controlled the military, was purged.

Another military head Guo Boxiong is held in Qincheng
Prison for corruption.

On July 10, US Senate approved Resolution 412.

It “calls on China to withdraw its Haiyang Shiyou 981 drilling
rig and associated maritime forces from their current positions,”
And return to the South Sea’s original status.

It “urges China to refrain from implementing the declared
East China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone”.

Some netizens and media believe that
the CCP has bowed to the US.

The South Sea dispute didn’t happen recently,
so why did the CCP keep silent in the past?

Yet while the anti-corruption was vigorously carried out,
the South Sea conflict suddenly became louder,
who has deliberately provoked the events?

A netizen says that any time when the corrupt CCP group
was focused on,
international disputes would be created accordingly.

China-based writer Jing Chu: “Some netizens speculated that
the rig being moved into sensitive areas,
was a Jiang faction attempt to create
embarrassment for Xi Jinping.

Moving away from the areas, is likely because Xi Jinping
thought Jiang’s faction went too far.

Because the CCP army is for suppressing civilians,
and to protect the CCP.

Once they faced real enemies, they would panic.”

The state run media reported that on June 6, 63 Vietnamese
vessels arrived in the disputed waters.
They broke into China’s area and clashed with
Chinese boats 1,416 times.

In mid-May, because the oil rig crossed the Vietnamese border,
several thousands of Vietnamese smashed, looted
and burnt Taiwanese and Chinese companies based in Vietnam.

It caused 300 Chinese and Taiwanese casualties
and serious damage to property.

Sources say that before the oil rig was moved, the Philippines
was planning to join Vietnam to fight to death with the CCP
in the South Sea.
Vietnam was seeking US help.

Professor Ding Shufan, Taiwan College of International Affairs:
“The CCP always thought it could suppress an opponent.
But regarding this affair, it is uneasy.

The Philippines, Vietnam and Japan had brought
many problems to China.

If suppression didn’t work, the CCP would use soft methods,
at least in this way, its neighboring countries
wouldn’t be completely against it.”

China Petroluem Daily cited a Vietnamese scholar that
withdrawing the oil rig was
“under Vietnamese People’s Army deterrent effect.”

Le Haibinh, spokesman of the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry
said that Vietnam had requested China not to bring Haiyang
Shiyou 981 oil rig and other rigs into Vietnam’s
Gas Zone -143 or into any Vietnam waters.
