BEIJING - China's foreign ministry said on Monday that the United States had deliberately sent its ships to the South China Sea to flex its muscles, and accused Washington of trying to drive a wedge between the countries in the region.

Foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian made the comments during a daily press briefing in Beijing in response to a question about two US aircraft carriers conducting operations and exercises in South China Sea. China also warned that it reserved the right to take additional action in response to Canada suspending its extradition treaty with Hong Kong.
