MoD breaches EU rules by training Chinese officer
Michael Smith
THE government has breached EU rules banning military cooperation with China by allowing a Chinese army officer to study at Sandhurst.
Officer Cadet Liu Liu, who graduated from the Royal Military Academy last month, has spent the past year training alongside British army cadets.
A second Chinese People's Liberation Army officer is expected to join the new intake at Sandhurst this week.
The move will infuriate the US which has warned that a relaxation of the EU arms embargo to allow training would help China to work out ways of countering western military doctrine.
The People’s Liberation Army is the world’s largest armed forces at more than 1.25 million strong and is increasingly seen by the US as a major threat.
The ban on military cooperation is part of an arms embargo imposed by the US and EU countries in the wake of the Tiananmen Square crackdown in June 1989.
