On this day 32 years ago, July 23, 1993 (June 5, 1993 lunar calendar), the "Galaxy" incident began and ended. September 4, 1993. Dammam Port, Saudi Arabia. After 10 days of hard work, the members of the Chinese and Saudi inspection teams who participated in the inspection of the cargo of the Chinese freighter "Galaxy" and the American experts who participated in the inspection as Saudi technical consultants completed the inspection of all the cargo on the "Galaxy". The head of the Chinese inspection team, Sha Zukang, the Saudi representative Abdullah, and the US technical consultant McEwan, on behalf of their respective governments, signed the final inspection result report with completely different feelings. "Through a thorough inspection of all the containers on board the Galaxy, the results showed that there were no two types of chemicals on board, thiodiglycol and sulfinyl chloride," the inspection report said. "The US government promises to inform the governments of the countries where the Chinese cargo ship Galaxy is scheduled to call at the port of call, and work hard to ensure the smooth entry of the Galaxy into the relevant port for unloading." At this point, the truth of the so-called Chinese "Galaxy" cargo ship's delivery of dangerous chemical weapons precursors to Iran has finally come to light. Since August 3, the "Galaxy", a Chinese cargo liner that was conducting normal international commercial shipping, has been wronged and forced to suspend normal shipping for 33 days, which has aroused the concern of the Chinese people. The final inspection report finally cleared the "Milky Way", and the situation seemed to be able to calm down. However, there are still many questions in people's minds: what happened to the "Milky Way" incident? Why did this ordinary cargo ship cause such an uproar in the world? Why did this incident last for so long? What conclusions should people draw from the incident? With these questions in mind, the reporter recently interviewed the officials of the relevant departments directly responsible for and involved in the handling of the "Galaxy" incident, and learned the inside story as follows: On July 23, 1993, the officials of the US Embassy in China suddenly and urgently met with the officials of the International Department of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, claiming: The US has received accurate information that the Chinese cargo ship "Galaxy" departed from Dalian Port on July 15, loaded with thiodiethylene glycol and thionyl chloride, precursors for the manufacture of chemical weapons, and was en route to Bandar Abbas in Iran. The US government demands that the Chinese government take immediate measures to stop this export behavior, otherwise, the US will impose sanctions on China in accordance with its own domestic laws. On August 3, in another negotiation with our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the US actually ignored the basic principles of the inviolability of national sovereignty and the non-interference in other countries' internal affairs, and demanded that the Chinese government order the "Galaxy" to return to its departure point; or that the Americans board the ship to inspect the cargo to find out whether the above-mentioned chemicals are on board; or simply stay at a certain location and let it go. In fact, before the US negotiation, that is, since August 1, two US warships have already started tracking the "Galaxy" two nautical miles to the left and right of the navigation position, and US aircraft have been circling over the "Galaxy" for reconnaissance and photography. The harassment of US warships and aircraft has seriously affected the normal navigation of the "Galaxy". On August 3, the "Galaxy" was forced to suspend its advance and anchored in the high seas more than ten nautical miles from the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, the United States spread the above-mentioned alarmist "intelligence" to the Gulf countries, and the Western news media also played up the "discovery" of the United States. It began to say that the "Galaxy" was carrying sensitive chemicals, and then said that it was full of chemical weapons, and even said that it was carrying nuclear weapons. The "Galaxy" seemed to have become a "plague" ship. Careful investigation The Americans described their "intelligence" as "absolutely true". Although China has clear regulations banning and restricting such chemicals, it did not immediately deny it rashly, but took a serious attitude. The Chinese authorities conducted a serious, thorough and comprehensive investigation into the "Galaxy" cargo ship, including its cargo, for 12 days, and found out the details of the ship. The investigation results proved that the so-called "intelligence" of the US side is full of loopholes. Let's talk about the ship first: "Galaxy" is a container liner on the Middle East route of China Guangzhou Ocean Shipping Company. The fixed route is Tianjin Xingang - Shanghai - Hong Kong - Singapore - Jakarta - Dubai - Dammam - Kuwait. The ship departed from Tianjin Xingang to Shanghai on July 7, and left Shanghai for Hong Kong on the 12th. It was originally scheduled to arrive in Dubai on August 3 after docking in Singapore and Jakarta. It can be seen that it is impossible for the ship to set sail from Dalian Port, and there is no plan to sail to any port in Iran. The United States says that the destination of the "Galaxy" is the Iranian port of Abbas, but there is no container terminal in the port. What can the "Galaxy" do there? Besides, the goods: After carefully checking the manifest and bill of lading of the goods carried by the "Galaxy", and verifying with the cargo owner, the "Galaxy" is indeed carrying goods destined for Iran, a total of 30 containers, mainly some stationery, hardware, machinery parts and dyes. These goods and 80% of the other goods carried by the "Galaxy" were originally planned to be unloaded at the port of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and then transshipped. As for the thiodiethylene glycol and thionyl chloride that the US claims to be loaded on the ship, there is no such thing. The United States has a strong intelligence force, which is said to be "discerning". However, it is surprising that the so-called "exact intelligence" surrounding the "Galaxy" is so bad that American policymakers are so convinced. Regarding two chemicals, thiodiglycol and thionyl chloride, according to chemical experts, thiodiglycol is a colorless and transparent liquid in a syrup. It is mainly used to make preservatives, pesticides, herbicides and cotton fabric stains. It can also be used to make ballpoint pen oil. Sulfinyl chloride is a colorless or pale yellow liquid, mostly used in organic synthesis, dyes, pesticides and pharmaceutical manufacturing. These two chemicals have been used by countries for military purposes, such as making chemical warfare agents such as mustard gas. The Chemical Weapons Convention signed in January this year stipulates that the transfer of these two chemicals should be controlled. According to the head of the relevant Chinese department, the Chinese government has formulated measures to prohibit and restrict as early as 1990. Therefore, it is impossible for the so-called large quantities of thiodiglycol and sulfinyl chloride to appear on the "Galaxy" freighter. Solemn representations On August 4, our country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed the US of China's investigation results, pointing out that the so-called "intelligence" of the US side is seriously inaccurate, and made solemn representations to the US side, pointing out that China has always taken a prudent and responsible attitude towards chemical exports. The export control system is very strict, and it never exports chemicals and technologies and equipment for the purpose of manufacturing chemical weapons. The US's groundless accusation that the Chinese cargo ship "Galaxy" exported two chemical weapons precursors to Iran and wantonly interfered with the ship's normal commercial navigation is unreasonable. During the negotiations, the Chinese side also demanded that the US take immediate measures to stop all obstructing or interfering activities and ensure that the "Galaxy" enters the relevant ports to unload its cargo. However, the US's misinformation and hegemonic practices have caused serious consequences. The "Galaxy" is stranded in the high seas of the Gulf region. At this time, the ship began to lack oil and water, and urgently needed supplies. On the evening of August 4, after many negotiations and arrangements, the relevant authorities of the United Arab Emirates agreed to send a tugboat close to the "Galaxy" and refill it with 60 tons of fuel oil and fresh water each. But even at this point, the US even said that the Iranian ship was approaching the "Galaxy" and warned the "Galaxy" not to enter the Iranian port. Due to the obstructions of the US, the issue of the "Galaxy" being allowed to enter the relevant port to unload goods has not been resolved for a long time. Assistant Foreign Minister Qin Huasun of our country was ordered to urgently summon the US Ambassador to China Rui Xiaojian on August 7 to express a strong protest against the overbearing behavior of the US against the "Galaxy". Qin Huasun stressed that in the relationship between countries, it is against the norms of international relations and international law to take action against another sovereign country based on false so-called intelligence. The actions of the US side have unreasonably damaged China's international image, interfered with the normal shipping of Chinese ships, disrupted normal relations and trade exchanges between sovereign states, caused serious economic losses to China, seriously threatened the safety of Chinese ships and their personnel, and cast a new shadow on Sino-US relations. The Chinese side strongly demands that the US side take immediate measures to ensure the smooth unloading of the "Galaxy" at the port as originally planned; demands that the US side compensate and bear responsibility for all losses and consequences caused by its unreasonable actions, and ensure that it will not interfere with the normal shipping and commercial activities of Chinese merchant ships in the future. Despite the repeated stern representations made by the Chinese side, the US side still stubbornly clings to its so-called "intelligence". On August 12, a senior US official still declared: "We have reliable intelligence to prove that the [Galaxy] ship contains chemical weapons. We are determined to inspect the ship." In order to explain the truth to the international community with facts, solve the problem of the blockage of the "Galaxy" as soon as possible, avoid more serious losses to China and the cargo owners of all parties, and make the crew of the "Galaxy" less tortured, China proposed to the US as early as August 4 that a third country should work with China to inspect the relevant cargo of the "Galaxy". After many efforts, the government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has expressed its willingness to accept the Chinese "Galaxy" cargo ship into its Dammam port, and the Chinese inspection team will work with Saudi representatives to conduct the inspection. The United States will send experts as technical advisers to the Saudi side to participate in the inspection. On August 25, after more than 20 days adrift on the high seas, the "Galaxy" finally arrived at the Saudi port of Dammam, waiting for inspection. Inspection storm On August 26, Saudi, Chinese, and American inspectors arrived at the Jukol naval base near the port of Dammam, presided over by the chief representative of the host Saudi side and the commander of the Jukol naval base, Brigadier General Ibrahim, for the first round of talks between the three parties. The Saudi side proposed a draft inspection procedure, and after nine hours of negotiations, the three parties reached an agreement: to review the shipping list of the "Galaxy", find out the goods shipped to Iran, and conduct a visual inspection; if there is any doubt about the cargo box, it can be unloaded for unpacking inspection; after the inspection, Saudi Arabia, China and the United States signed the result report and announced it to the world. At 8:00 am on the 28th, the representatives of the three parties arrived at the dock together. At 10:00, the temperature in the sun rose to 65 degrees Celsius, and the inspection began. For the first time in many years, the American personnel who had the opportunity to inspect the Chinese ship, some wearing desert camouflage clothes, some wearing gas masks, and carrying various instruments, seemed to be about to confirm their "intelligence". When the first shipping container to Iran was opened, it was in front of people a barrel of lead-sealed black paint cans. The Americans were ecstatic. However, after opening it, they found that it was colorful dyes. Since then, 23 containers shipped to Iran have been opened one after another. They contained exactly the stationery, small hardware and mechanical parts that the Chinese had told them in Beijing, but not the two chemicals that the Americans were looking for. This inspection result was obviously not what the US side had hoped for. The results in front of them, the US experts began to be at a loss. In order to prove the correctness of their intelligence, they proposed to expand the scope of inspection and open the six boxes of goods transshipped from Hong Kong to Iran. The American inspectors who participated in the inspection as Saudi technical consultants, regardless of their identity, personally rummaged through the boxes and still found nothing. At this time, the United States asked for the unpacking inspection of 19 boxes of goods shipped by China to countries other than Iran. The result was the same. From then on, as long as the United States saw the goods in liquid cans, it would not let them go, and all samples were taken and sent to the laboratory for analysis. To show the importance of the test, the United States also sent all the test reagents from the US warship. However, the results of the test are increasingly embarrassing for the Americans. Some people joke that if Coca-Cola is shipped on board, the Americans must also send it for testing. The number of opened boxes continues to increase, but what the Americans are looking for is still not available. However, they are not reconciled, let alone ready to accept the fact that they unilaterally tore up the agreement reached by the three parties, and unreasonably proposed to inspect all the goods on board, including the goods sent from third countries. The Chinese inspection team asked the US side to provide a justifiable reason for expanding the scope of the inspection. The US side has never produced any evidence except for repeating over and over that "Washington is convinced that there are two chemicals on board". The US official finally said "bluntly" that even if Washington cannot provide evidence, it will doubt the goods on board the "Galaxy", including the goods shipped from third countries such as Japan and Singapore, and threatened that if the US side is not allowed to inspect all the goods, the US will not recognize the final inspection results. On September 1, officials of our country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs urgently summoned officials from the US Embassy in China to lodge representations against the US's breach of promises and treachery, and clearly expressed its position against US interference in goods from third countries. The US side should bear the consequences of conducting such inspections. At the same time, the US side is required to: 1. Written approval of the inspection results obtained so far, that is, all 49 boxes of goods sent from China do not contain the chemicals alleged by the US; 2. Promise to sign the inspection results report with the representatives of China and Saudi Arabia after completing the inspection of the goods on the "Galaxy". In order to prevent the US side from making another incident and overturning the inspection results, the head of the Chinese inspection team asked the three parties to sign and confirm the daily inspection records. Under the pressure of justice, the US side had to accept this suggestion. After that, a string of words "none" were neatly arranged under the columns "thiodiethylene glycol" and "thionyl chloride" on the daily inspection record sheet, and the bottom line was the signature of the different characters of the representatives of the three parties. On September 4, the 782nd and last cargo box on the "Galaxy" freighter was inspected. The inspection result of this cargo box was exactly the same as that of the first cargo box. The last hope of the United States to seize the handle and tarnish China's reputation under the banner of preventing the proliferation of chemical weapons was completely dashed. On the same day, the representatives of China, Saudi Arabia and the United States signed the inspection report for inspecting all the goods. In the 1990s, a country like the United States, which prides itself on advocating the "rule of law" and "democracy", can do whatever it wants in the world. If this continues, how many more cargo ships like the "Galaxy" will suffer this fate? What other justice is there in the world?On this day 32 years ago, July 23, 1993 (June 5, 1993 lunar calendar), the "Galaxy" incident began and ended. September 4, 1993. Dammam Port, Saudi Arabia.
