The USS Patriot and USS Guardian are in Hong Kong for a port call, the first US Naval ships allowed here since the US spy plane row erupted in April this year when a US Navy surveillance plane and a Chinese Jet fighter collided off the southern Chinese coast forcing the US plane to make an emergency landing on Hainan Island.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Peter Parks of Agence France-Presse (AFP), the USS Patriot, one of two mine countermeasure ships from the US Navy, gracefully glides into Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong on 26 July 2001. This momentous occasion marks the first port call for US Naval ships since a heated dispute erupted earlier that year. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the tensions between China and the United States following a collision between a US Navy surveillance plane and a Chinese Jet fighter off the southern Chinese coast. The incident forced the American aircraft to make an emergency landing on Hainan Island, further escalating diplomatic strains. Amidst this backdrop, we witness the USS Patriot's arrival in Hong Kong, symbolizing a potential thawing of relations and an opportunity for dialogue between these two global powers. The image showcases not only the naval might but also highlights diplomacy at work. Parks' expert composition captures both strength and serenity as he frames the majestic vessel against Victoria Harbour's picturesque backdrop. The horizontal orientation emphasizes stability while allowing viewers to appreciate every detail of this formidable navy ship. This remarkable snapshot is not just about military power; it encapsulates hope for reconciliation and peaceful coexistence amidst geopolitical challenges. It stands as a testament to photography's ability to freeze moments that hold historical significance forever etched in our collective memory.
