Heading: Unilateral actions by the Philippines trigger escalation of tensions in the South China Sea, and China's tough response to safeguard sovereignty
Hey, friends, today we have to talk about that hot spot - the South China Sea. The temperature in these waters is no joke lately, and it's about to boil. What's going on? I'll give you a look.
First, let's talk about the Philippines. Recently, they have been misbehaving a bit and taking matters into their own hands in the South China Sea. Do you know that Ren'ai Jiao? It's the coral reef in the middle of the South China Sea that is now the focus of this turmoil. No, the Philippines sent some ships over, and I heard that they were also carrying building materials or something, and it seemed that they were planning to engage in some construction activities. This is clearly a one-sided wrong move!
Zhang Xiaogang, a spokesman for China's Ministry of National Defense, was not idle, and he stood up to make a statement. The implication is that we are not satisfied with the provocations of the Philippines and urge them to stop abusive provocations. You must know that China has always been resolute in safeguarding its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
Next, let's talk about how China counterattacked. In the face of the Philippines' unprovoked provocations, China did not sit idly by. In particular, we should directly intercept and expel those ships transporting building materials! But at the same time, we must also make it clear that although China loves peace, it is by no means a bully.
As for the supply ships that carry the necessities of life, China treats them differently. For these ships, no less tough measures were taken. After all, we still have to think about humanitarianism!
Then again, in the waters near Second Thomas Shoal, Chinese ships are not idle. Formation, Stay, Patrol...... There are all kinds of actions. Through these positive measures, China has sent a clear signal to the Philippines: How can we allow you to be presumptuous at our own doorstep?
In the past, China may have been more conservative and low-key on the South China Sea issue. But what about this time? The attitude has changed! It may have something to do with the Philippines' military presence in civilian supply ships -- this behavior naturally angered the Chinese side.
Finally, let's guess what is the purpose of the Chinese ships other than to make a statement? As far as I can see, it may include surveying the hydrological situation and preparing for tough actions that may need to be carried out in the future...... In short, it is to plan for the future cautiously and strategically.
That's the end of the second news! We still need to wait and see how the situation in the South China Sea develops! What do you think? See you in the comment area!
