Nowadays, most people feel that the South China Sea is the most important point for China.
After all, from the United States, to Japan, to the Philippines, they are all making trouble in the South China Sea.
In particular, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos said that if Filipino personnel are killed in a conflict in the South China Sea, the "U.S.-Philippines Mutual Defense Agreement" will be invoked.
This is very straightforward.
It is telling China that the Philippines is not afraid of China, and that it will carry out provocations in the South China Sea next, and if there are casualties in the Philippines, the Philippines will look for the United States!
It seems that the South China Sea is the top priority that the PLA should focus on at the moment.
But what is the reality?
The reality is that this April, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) held two military exercises on the China-Myanmar border with live ammunition in succession.
Why did the People's Liberation Army (PLA) suddenly hold military exercises in this direction, and what was the purpose?
In fact, it was because of the start of the civil war in Myanmar.
Burmese government forces are gradually losing control of the border.
In order to prevent the flames of fighting in Myanmar from reaching China's territory, China must hold live-fire exercises at the border at this time.
The military exercises of the Chinese People's Liberation Army are not only knocking on the Burmese government army, but also knocking on the Karen National Union, the "civilian armed forces" in northern Myanmar.
No matter what happens in Myanmar, no matter what happens in Myanmar.
As long as any side of Myanmar dares to cross the border, it will be severely attacked by the Chinese People's Liberation Army!
And judging from the current situation, the Burmese government army is indeed losing control step by step.
At present, nine of the 10 mobile divisions of the Burmese army have suffered heavy casualties, and 11 of the 21 field brigades are full of wounded soldiers.
If the fight continues like this, the Burmese government army will be removed from power sooner or later.
At present, except for China, which is preparing for war in Burma.
The Thai side is also taking action.
It has been reported that the Thai side has made preparations in advance to receive and temporarily resettle about 100,000 war refugees from the Burmese side. At the same time, the Thai side is also considering temporarily closing the two friendship bridges on the Thai-Myanmar border.
As for Thailand's position in the Burmese civil war, it is also very clear, the Thai deputy minister said that Thailand maintains a neutral position in the Myanmar conflict, and at the same time, Thailand will hold a cabinet meeting to promote peace talks between all parties in Myanmar.
Finally, Thailand also stressed the importance of peace and stability in Myanmar for Thailand.
It can be said that the nervous attitude of China and Thailand is enough to see how big the impact of this war in Myanmar is.
This is why in April, the Chinese People's Liberation Army organized two consecutive live-fire military exercises on the China-Myanmar border.
The affairs of the South China Sea, after all, are a great power game, and they will not be taken lightly.
However, the affairs of Myanmar will affect the security of the people on China's borders at any time, but it will affect the security of China's periphery at any time.
This is the fundamental significance of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) holding a live-fire military exercise here!
Russia and Ukraine are fighting, Iran and Israel are also going to war in the Middle East, and Myanmar is also in chaos, so I am really glad that we live in a peaceful country.
