China: US must be objective about Asia tensions

China's top military leader is warning that the US must be objective about the tensions between China and Vietnam, or risk harming relations between Washington and Beijing.
People's Liberation Army's Chief of the General Staff Gen Fang Fenghui says the US effort to increase focus on the Asia Pacific has stirred up disputes in the East and South China Seas.
Fang was at the Pentagon for meetings with US Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen Martin Dempsey. Dempsey says they talked about the risk of provocation in using military assets in the region.
Fang's visit comes on the heels of a mob riot targeting Chinese at a Taiwanese steel miss in Vietnam and anti-China protests over Beijing's deployment of an oil rig in the long-disputed region of the South China Sea.
