Recently, the Solomon Islands refused to dock the US and British ships, catching the US military off guard. The U.S. military thought that it could show off its might in the Western Pacific, but now the rear has turned against it. The Solomon Islands stated that British and American ships were not allowed to dock in their own ports, basically drawing a clear line with the United States, Britain, and Australia.
As a member of the British Commonwealth, the Solomon Islands' refusal of Anglo-American ships this time greatly annoyed the Western hegemonic group, but there was nothing they could do. Geographically, the Solomon Islands is located in the South Pacific, is a relatively large island country, naturally its strategic location is very important, THE US warships can be supplied here, when the Solomon Islands refuse to enter the US warships, it means that the US military has lost a more important supply point. It is worth mentioning that China and solomon islands recently signed a security agreement, the content of which has not yet been disclosed, mainly involving humanitarian assistance, natural disaster response, etc., and also strengthening the maintenance of related security areas. The U.S. military believes that it is this agreement that makes the Solomon Islands abandon the U.S. military and get closer to China.
Although the content of the agreement has not yet been made public, sources from Australia said that the draft agreement shows that China's fleet of ships will be allowed to dock in the Solomon Islands and be able to participate in the security and defense of the Solomon Islands. If this clause is confirmed, it further shows that the Solomon Islands have completely abandoned the United States, Britain and other Western countries and begun to side with China. Even if this clause cannot be confirmed, it also shows that China has hardened this time, and the Solomon Islands' refusal to dock the US warship is equivalent to saying "no" to the United States, Britain, Australia and other powers, and it can also be regarded as the awakening of the Pacific island countries.
For a long time, the role of the US military in the Pacific Ocean is equivalent to that of the international police, supported by the US military's naval and air combat forces, to provide various protections to The Pacific island countries in exchange for relevant support and resources. Solomon Islands is one of the Pacific island countries squeezed by the US military, the US military has long docked its ships in the Solomon Islands, and asked the Solomon Islands to wholeheartedly support the US military, solomon islands are also members of the British Commonwealth, and the distance with Australia is very close.
Geographically, if the Solomon Islands were on China's side, it would be like punching a nail into the interior of the Anglo-American-Australian hegemonic group, building a bridge of friendship in the South Pacific, and our naval ships rarely sailed to the South Pacific in the past, and one of the problems was that there was a problem with supplies. Now, if the Solomon Islands were on China's side, plaguing its fleet could cross the Philippine Sea into the South Pacific and penetrate deep into the hinterland of Australia. It is of great strategic significance, because the Solomon Islands are about 2,000 kilometers away from Australia, and if the PLA ship formation establishes a supply point in the Solomon Islands, it can be used as a springboard to carry out cruise missile strikes on Australian US military bases, destroy the B-2 bomber base here, and direct combat effectiveness into the rear positions of the United States and Australia, which will have a huge role in reversing the situation in the West Pacific.
The geographical location of the Solomon Islands is located in the rear of the second island chain in the Pacific, which is of great strategic significance to the US military, and if the Solomon Islands becomes a member of the Chinese camp, it will have a huge interference effect on the stability of the US Pacific rear, even if the SHIPS of the People's Liberation Army do not go deep into the Solomon Islands, they can really contain the US military. If the PLA's medium- and long-range missiles can be deployed to the Solomon Islands, the strategic lethal effect on the US military is very huge, Guam is about 3,000 kilometers away from the Solomon Islands, theoretically within the range of medium-range ballistic missiles. From the point of view of being able to strike not only Guam but also Australia, the strategic position of the Solomon Islands is very important.
