Recently, the mainland navy conducted a joint air-sea combat exercise in the South China Sea, mainly aimed at responding to joint patrols between the United States and the Philippines. The Philippines, which had hoped to improve its self-image with the help of the U.S. military, was shaken by the perception of our firm determination to safeguard our national rights and interests.
The Philippines and the United States have joined forces to conduct maritime patrols, but the PLA has not expected to take precautions. According to Philippine media reports, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) dispatched the advanced missile destroyer Hefei and the missile frigate Huangshan to monitor the US and Philippine fleets. These two warships are known as the "Escort with Knife" and the "China Aegis" respectively for their outstanding performance, especially the Huangshan ship, which is equipped with the YJ-12 anti-ship missile, which is known as the "aircraft carrier killer". It is worth noting that the US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Carl Vinson" also made an appearance in the training of the Philippine military.
Dear Carlos, the leader of the Western Command of the Armed Forces of the Philippines said that he would like to visit the take-off and landing training of carrier-based aircraft of the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier in the near future, so as to take the opportunity to show the media the results of the high degree of cooperation between the United States and the Philippines. Unfortunately, this joint sea and air exercise, hosted by the Chinese People's Liberation Army, prevented our original plan.
The recent joint naval and air exercises in the South China Sea have attracted much attention and attracted attention from many parties. According to a report by the authoritative platform "Yuyuan Tantian", even though the Philippines tried to show a resolute stance, it could only choose to return to the negotiating table because it failed to achieve the expected goal. In fact, no matter whether the Philippines takes the initiative to provoke or enlist other countries to participate, it will not be able to break the deadlock. In addition, the United States is facing a number of regional tensions, such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the new rivalry between Palestine and Israel, and inter-Korean tensions. In the face of such a complex situation, U.S. assistance to the Philippines could create uncertainty.
The PLA's resolute defense of its dignity, coupled with the U.S. engagement in other regional tensions, may prompt the Philippines to carefully consider and reduce its malicious provocations in the South China Sea, the expert said. Obviously, the Philippine side has misjudged the strength and determination of the PLA.
The Chinese People's Liberation Army's joint naval and air exercise had an important impact on the Philippine "momentum plan". The Philippines, which had hoped to increase international attention and support, was in trouble because of the PLA's resolute attitude. The incident also reminds people that the United States has not done anything about the South China Sea. The PLA's joint naval and air exercises in the South China Sea demonstrated its determination to safeguard core interests and dealt a heavy blow to the Philippine program. This time, the Philippines tried to use the power of the United States, but it was not possible. They have no choice but to get back on the right track. This incident once again demonstrates the PLA's solid position on the South China Sea issue.
