【禁聞】撤鑽井平臺 爭軍隊控制權內鬥結束?

【新唐人2014年07月18日訊】7月15號,中共提前一個月將「981鑽井平臺」從中、越爭議海域移走,因為「981平臺」在西沙群島近兩個月來,引發了中、越兩國的對峙和衝突。中共這一突然撤退舉動也招來不少議論。評論認為,兩個月前,中共把耗資10億美元的石油鑽井平臺移到西沙,本來就只是中共內鬥中,雙方為爭奪對軍隊的控制權,討好軍中鷹派,以及轉移國內矛盾的需要,現在隨著對軍隊控制權爭奪的結束,鑽井平臺再放置在有爭議的領域就沒有必要了。

7月15號,引發中、越兩國對峙近兩個半月的「中海油981鑽井平臺」突然撤離,返回海南島附近海域,撤離日期與早先宣佈的計劃提早了一個月。中共外交部聲稱,撤走鑽井平臺的原因是颱風季節即將開始,鑽探作業已經完成,與外界因素沒有關係。

而越南海警隊官員表示,越南將讓本國船只繼續留在那個地方,並密切關注鑽井平臺的動向。

時政評論員藍述:「從南海撤出來,主要的原因是中共高層對軍方控制權的爭奪已經基本告一段落,因為在南海、或者在中國周邊地區製造緊張局勢,它一個很大的目的就是高層在討好軍方的鷹派,因為他本來就不是真正想打,本來也不是真正缺那油田,有爭議的這些領海上去鑽,即使鑽出來油,你送不送的回去啊?」

時政評論員藍述指出,目前前中共黨魁江澤民在軍中的黨羽,基本上已經被中共軍委主席習近平收拾完畢。前一陣子,江澤民在軍中的實權派——徐才厚落馬,江派另一軍頭——郭伯雄,也因為「涉腐」被關押在「秦城監獄」。

7月10號,美國聯邦參議院通過「412號決議案」,要求中國將「981鑽井平臺」和護航船只撤離南海海域,恢復南海原狀,敦促中國節制執行東海防空識別區的宣示。

因而,有網友和媒體認為,中共撤走鑽進平臺是聽了美國政府的話。

南海領土被侵佔不是最近一兩天的事情,中共當局過去為甚麼默不作聲,而正當中國國內大力反腐的時候,卻突然高調起來? 是誰故意挑起的?有位網友說,當腐敗集團被國內民意聚焦的時候,國際紛爭就應運而生。

大陸網絡作家荊楚:「有網友推測,把鑽井平臺移到比較敏感的區域,可能是江澤民體系給習近平製造難堪,撤掉,可能是習近平他們認為這個事情搞得過火了,因為共產黨的軍隊是鎮壓老百姓的,是黨衛軍,遇上外敵的話,他們立即尿濕了褲襠的。」

據大陸官媒報導,截至6月7號,越方現場船只最多時達到63艘,衝闖中方警戒區及衝撞中方公務船,纍計達1416艘次。

而5月中旬,數千越南人因為中國鑽井平臺越界事件,對包括台灣和中國在越南的企業進行打、砸、搶、燒,造成300多名中國公民和台灣商人死傷,並造成重大財產損失。

有消息指稱,在鑽井平臺撤離之前,菲律賓正在籌劃與越南聯合,要與中共在南海決一死戰。而越南也正在南海問題上尋求美國的幫助。

台灣「政治大學國際事務學院」教授丁樹範:「有一種就是我有辦法把你整個壓制下去,那顯然這部分中國不太容易,因為從菲律賓、越南等等到日本,過去這兩年給中國帶來蠻多問題了,既然他如果沒有辦法把他壓制下去,他肯定要採取比較和緩的方式,讓周邊國家不至於跟他完全站在對立面。」

《中國石油報》引述一名越南學者的話說,中國撤離是「迫於越南人民軍的震懾力」。

而越南外交部發言人黎海平說,「越南要求中國,勿將海洋石油981或其他鑽油平臺,再帶進越南第143油氣區塊或任何越南海域」。

Oil Rig Withdrawn From Disputed Waters.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.
