Filipino leader Marcos Jr.
It can really be described as a shining "wonderful" in the international political arena:
Some time ago, a large number of Chinese and Philippine ships confronted each other in the South China Sea.
We are reasonable, lawful and compliant, and safeguard China's inherent territorial waters.
The Philippines, on the other hand, is a rabble that tries to provoke the mainland in order to hype it up internationally.
In the face of this "dove occupies the magpie's nest" speech.
The spokesman of the mainland defense department issued several "soul rhetorical questions", and directly told the Philippines whether he could do it:
Who is engaged in the confrontation?
Who is the yang and the yin?
And who is holding the thigh of the superpower and making waves?
This directly gave the Philippines a smash of the painting that had been planned for a long time.
This chess game, which involves the world's two major camps, is finally laid out in the South China Sea;
The United States is deadly and aggressive;
But as long as this point is in the hands of the mainland, there will be nothing to do with the United States in the South China Sea.
It's been planned for a long time
To say that there is no love for no reason, and there is no hate for no reason.
This sentence is really suitable for China and the United States.
After all, when I was young, I dreamed of "the kingdom of the heavenly empire", and there are really few countries that don't do personnel when they are strong.
Of course, the self-interest of capitalism is deeply ingrained in the bones of the Western powers.
We cannot expect all countries to understand the truth that "if you reach something, you will help the world".
But will wealth,
Since the United States has made a fortune by selling arms.
The first to encounter the black hand was the big brother of the socialist camp - the Soviet Union.
This is the central sourness, which is now either a well-known fact.
At this time, the signs of the United States point to the Middle East, which has been fighting for more than ten years and has not yet said anything.
As a result, the pattern of global oil trade has been rewritten.
But dignity, built on hegemony, is at stake.
So Lao Mei didn't say a word, it was a baptism of fire.
This led to the bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia at the turn of the century and the fall of the Twin Towers.
Or is the twentieth century the "American century"?
Seeing the ability of the wind to make the rudder, the entire Blue Star they recognize the second, and no one recognizes the first.
Since Nixon's remarks in the 70s of the last century, the United States has intended to set up China to fight against the former Soviet Union.
But I didn't expect the USSR to fall, and China to eat enough.
This is not a very appropriate analogy, but it is the "root cause" of China's rise in the eyes of the United States.
thereupon
Encirclement, pursuit, interception
Initially, the United States focused on the Asia-Pacific region, mainly because of the region's economic dynamism and growth potential.
During the Clinton era, for example, the idea of a "new Pacific Community" was proposed.
It aims to seek leadership in the Asia-Pacific economy and actively promote democracy.
However, with the events of 9/11.
The strategic focus of the United States has temporarily shifted to global counterterrorism.
In particular, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have reduced the attention of the United States to the Asia-Pacific region.
With China's accession to the WTO, the global economic situation has changed significantly.
The United States began to reassess its strategic interests in the Asia-Pacific region.
During the Obama administration, the "Asia-Pacific rebalance" strategy was put forward at the right time.
Trying to re-establish and elevate the dominant position of the United States in Asia.
They have come to realize the importance of looking at the Pacific and Indian Oceans as a holistic strategic perspective.
"Indo-Pacific" as a geospatial concept.
Covering the Indian and Pacific Oceans, it is important for global trade and sea lanes.
2017,
It aims to curb China's influence in the Indo-Pacific region.
The South China Sea region of the mainland returned to the attention of the United States at this time.
Although they have not given up on supporting their own agents around China.
It was not until Marcos Jr. came to power that the United States launched a Q-shaped noose on the mainland again.
Unlike Taiwan, the Philippines has always followed the lead of the United States, which has also made the United States more inclined to the Philippines.
Whether it's a side-by-shoulder military exercise or a big arms sale.
After all, the US blockade strategy has been extremely successful in the Middle East.
A chance to win
But the world has a new look.
China is no longer the same as it used to be in the past when it compromised for the sake of development.
The United States in the new era, showing indomitable hegemony, has also made his supporters dissatisfied.
Whether it is bordering the mainland on land or joining this link to revitalize the entire Asian economic system, the maritime countries have all reaped the dividends to a greater or lesser extent.
With common interests, even the most difficult problems will be solved.
With these three artificial islands, China has the confidence to stand tall and speak in the South China Sea.
The United States can only hold on to the Philippines and Taiwan, which is swaying from side to side.
Trying to counterbalance the mainland's "breakout strategy".
And for the current China, only the last "hand of God" is missing:
It stands to reason that Taiwan has an innate advantage in this move.
After all, peaceful reunification and one country, two systems have never been a slogan for so many years.
Moreover, the original military facilities of the Kuomintang can still be used by us after peaceful reunification.
At the behest of the United States, Scarborough Shoal is now frequently harassed by the Philippine side.
This problem will not be resolved in a short period of time.
So
However, the development of history and the current situation of domestic and foreign difficulties in the United States prove together.
There is no lasting hegemony.
Just as there is no such thing as democracy and freedom in the true sense of the word.
If the United States still insists on its perverse approach.
In the end, what is given back to them can only be the consequences.
