It was totally natural and legitimate for China to set up the East China Sea ADIZ.

中国划设防空识别区应该是很自然的一件事情，也是合理合法的。

To this we want to say that it is the US, not China, that set up the world's first ADIZ.

对此我们要指出，世界上第一个划设防空识别区的国家不是中国，而是美国。

To establish the ADIZ is China's legitimate right and is in full accord with international law and practice.

我们现在设立防空识别区完全是中国的正当权利，完全符合国际法和国际惯例。

America condemned China's announcement of the ADIZ. But it did not publicly call for the zone to be rescinded.

美国谴责中国划设防空识别区，但它没有公开呼吁废除这一识别区。

Dozens of countries have already done so and some did it long ago. For example, Japan established its ADIZ as early as in 1969.

因为已经有几十个国家都设立了防空识别区，有的国家设得很早，比如日本1969年就设立了。
