As we all know, as a neighbor of the mainland, the cooperation between the mainland and Vietnam is very close. And the exchanges between the two countries are very convenient, Vietnam is located in the southeast of the mainland, rich in fruit, so the mainland has always been their fruit export country. For example, bananas, durians, etc., to meet the consumer demand of our country.
As a tourist country, Vietnam attracts many Chinese tourists every year. Such cooperation could have boosted Vietnam's fiscal revenue and brought cultural exchanges between China and Vietnam closer. However, it always backfires.
We all know that in health emergencies, all countries are deeply involved in this problem. At the height of the situation on the mainland, the United States also closed flights with the mainland for the first time.
Directly grounding Chinese flights, currying favor with the United States' loss of tens of billions in five months, hoping that China will resume flights
Vietnam also made a sudden mistake this time, that is, unilaterally and desperately suspended flights to and from China. When they lost tens of billions of dollars, they regretted it.
In addition to suspending all flights to and from China, Vietnam will stop issuing visas to foreign visitors who have been to China in the past two weeks, and Vietnam has also said that flight permits for all flights between Vietnam and China have been cancelled until further notice.
The data shows that Vietnam is an export-driven economy, while China is its main export market, although the decision to "stop" Vietnam only involves tourism, but in the long run, other sectors of Vietnam's economy will inevitably be affected.
Since Vietnam in order to curry favor with the United States, suspended flights to China, Vietnam's airlines have suffered serious losses, along with other industries have also caused losses, in addition, Vietnam's fruit exports to the mainland have also been restricted, a large number of fruits can only rot because they cannot find new buyers, before and after, Vietnam's economic losses are as high as 56.7 billion.
Vietnam has clearly assumed a posture of permanent occupation of China's illegally occupied Nansha Qundao, and has continuously stepped up its efforts to build and expand the islands and reefs it has invaded, despite the requirements of the Declaration on Action in the South China Sea signed in 2002.
Vietnam's illegal acts in China's Nansha Qundao and reefs that it has invaded have been constantly detected by the outside world, but it still goes its own way and is not disturbed by outside voices at all.
Among Vietnam's land reclaimed islands and reefs, Bai Jiao is undoubtedly the largest of them.
Bai Jiao is a coral atoll, located about 50 nautical miles southeast of Yin Qing Reef, because of the large reef and shallow water, it is one of the main fishing grounds of Nansha Qundao, and it is also the traditional fishing ground of Chinese fishermen, which mainland fishermen used to call the Haikou line.
To the northeast of Baijiao Reef, there is a reef called "bird fish ingot" by Chinese fishermen, which is shaped like a boat ingot and has a head like a bird. In 1983, China officially named it "Bird Fish Ingot Stone".
At the southwest end of Bai Jiao, there is a reef 4.6 meters above the water, which is called "single pillar" by mainland fishermen, and is officially named "single pillar" by China.
By the way, Baijiao used to have a majestic name called "Liwei Island".
Satellite images of the South China Sea released by Western countries last year also show that the Vietnamese are indeed carrying out expansion and renovation projects at Kashi Reef, and it is also a large-scale reclamation project, which shows that Vietnam is not only planning, but also entering the implementation stage.
China's military presence in the South China Sea can take measures such as siege of islands and reefs illegally occupied by Vietnam that meet the conditions for recovery, forcing the other side to take the initiative to withdraw. Preventing countries outside the region from interfering in the affairs of the South China Sea and ensuring the affairs of the South China Sea is China's business.
