May 28-29 — Chinese and US military delegations met in Hawaii for the 2026 bilateral maritime security consultative mechanism working-group meeting. Guided by a shared aim to build a constructive strategic-stability relationship, delegations held frank exchanges on current maritime and air security conditions, assessed implementation of the China‑US Code for Safe Encounters at Sea and in the Air since the 2025 meeting, and discussed measures to improve handling of maritime military-safety issues. Both sides said effective military-to-military communication helps front-line units perform tasks more professionally and reduces risk of miscalculation. China reiterated firm opposition to any use of freedom of navigation or overflight to undermine its sovereignty or security, condemned infringement, provocative acts and close-in reconnaissance and harassment, and said it will continue to lawfully and resolutely defend territorial sovereignty and maritime rights while maintaining regional peace and prosperity.
