No access': Rex Tillerson sets collision course with Beijing in South China Sea
Snippet from an article in the Guardian

Rex Tillerson, Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of state, has set the stage for a potential clash with China, saying it should be barred from artificial islands it has built in the South China Sea.

Tillerson said China’s control and construction of artificial islands in waters claimed by neighbouring countries was “akin to Russia’s taking of Crimea”.
Bluster or setting out a position?
