BEIJING: Foreign Ministry of China said in a conference that a stranded ship in Colombia for illegally military arms was on normal trade cooperation that was operated by China’s largest shipping group, Cosco Shipping Co Ltd.
Ministry spokeswoman, Hua Chunying, said the ship was carrying ordinary military supplies to Cuba and was not in violation of any international obligations.
The Da Dan Xia, operated by Cosco Shipping Co Ltd , was headed for Cuba when it was stopped in the northern port of Cartagena, on the Caribbean coast, after the arms were detected during an inspection.
