The United States deployed aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson to the disputed waters of the South China Sea, CNN reported quoting U.S.  Navy.

Official Beijing has already warned Washington about inadmissibility of the actions against China's sovereignty.

"China respects and upholds the freedom of navigation and overflight in the South China Sea, which countries enjoy under international law, but firmly opposes any country's attempt to undermine China's sovereignty and security in the name of the freedom of navigation and overflight," China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said.
