China has shifted from defense to offense in the South China Sea, pushing the front to the Philippines mainland, and cannot just focus on Ren'ai Jiao

China's South China Sea Strategy Shifts from "Defensive to Offensive"? Recent actions have sent multiple signals

Recently, China's high-profile moves in the South China Sea have attracted widespread international attention, and some analysts have interpreted it as a signal that China's South China Sea strategy has shifted from "defensive" to "offensive". From the frequent appearance of Chinese coast guard ships in the coastal waters of the Philippines, to the passage of the Shandong aircraft carrier formation through the Bahrain Tang Strait, to the establishment of a no-navigation zone in the South China Sea for live-fire training, China has shown a more proactive posture in safeguarding its maritime rights and interests.

The Philippines reacted strongly to China's recent actions, calling the normal patrolling activities of Chinese coast guard vessels "intrusive patrols" and claiming that its coast guard was closely monitoring the movements of Chinese vessels. Some voices in the Philippines are concerned that China's move is intended to strengthen its claims in the South China Sea and pose a potential threat to the Philippines.

The spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stressed that the China Coast Guard ships carry out routine patrol and law enforcement activities in waters under China's jurisdiction to maintain navigation order and ensure maritime safety, which is in full compliance with international law and China's domestic law. The Chinese Foreign Ministry also urged the Philippine side to stop all acts that infringe on China's sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, and to stop taking unilateral actions that complicate the situation.

Analysts point out that China's tough posture in the South China Sea is not unrelated to a series of provocative actions by the Philippines in recent years. The Philippines has not only been capricious on the Ren'ai Jiao issue and attempted to occupy China's territory by illegally beaching warships, but has also colluded with foreign forces in an attempt to internationalize the South China Sea issue and form a strategic encirclement of China.

In particular, on the recent issue of resupplying Ren'ai Jiao, the Philippines has reversed course after reaching an interim agreement, refusing China's normal inspection of supply vessels, and attempting to illegally transport construction materials to Ren'ai Jiao and reinforce its illegally beached warships. The Philippines' treacherous move has completely angered China and prompted China to resolve to take more decisive measures to safeguard its sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.

In addition to the shift in maritime operations, China has also made corresponding adjustments in public opinion. China's Ministry of Natural Resources recently released an environmental assessment report on Ren'ai Jiao and Scarborough Shoal, which found that Philippine activities at Ren'ai Jiao have caused serious damage to the local marine ecosystem, and that China's recovery of Huang'ai Shoal has effectively protected the ecological environment in the area. This move is intended to expose the hypocrisy of the Philippines on the South China Sea issue to the international community and demonstrate China's determination and ability to maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.

It is worth noting that China's hardline stance on the South China Sea issue this time is not a deliberate one, but a deliberate strategic choice. In recent years, as China's comprehensive national strength has continued to increase, China has become more confident in safeguarding its core interests and more capable of taking necessary measures to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

China has always been committed to resolving disputes in the South China Sea through dialogue and consultation, but it will never make any compromises on issues involving its core national interests. China's actions in the South China Sea are not only a stern warning to the Philippines and other countries, but also a clear signal to the international community that China is determined and capable of safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests in the South China Sea, and that any attempt to challenge China's bottom line will be met with resolute countermeasures.

China's position on the South China Sea issue will be firmer and its actions will be more decisive. China will continue to strengthen its military presence in the South China Sea and enhance its maritime rights protection capabilities, and will actively participate in international cooperation in the South China Sea to maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.

Here's a rundown of China's major recent actions in the South China Sea:

Chinese Coast Guard vessels frequently appear in the waters off the coast of the Philippines:

A number of Chinese coast guard vessels, including the 3301 and 3105 ships of the China Coast Guard, have recently appeared frequently in the coastal waters of the Philippines, and some ships once appeared in the waters near Manila, the capital of the Philippines, and were only more than 30 nautical miles away from the Philippine coastline at the nearest time.

Shandong aircraft carrier formation through the Bahrain Tang Strait:

China's Shandong aircraft carrier squadron recently passed through the Bahrain Tang Strait for training in the open sea. Located between the Philippine islands of Luzon and Palawan, the Bahrain Tang Strait is an important waterway connecting the South China Sea and the Sulu Sea.

Set up a no-navigation zone in the South China Sea for live-fire training:

The People's Liberation Army (PLA) recently set up a no-sail zone in the South China Sea for a five-day live-fire training.

Release of the Environmental Assessment Report for Second Thomas Reef and Scarborough Shoal Island:

China's Ministry of Natural Resources recently released an environmental assessment of Second Thomas Shoal and Scarborough Shoal, noting that Philippine activities at Second Thomas Shoal have caused serious damage and that the country is in very good condition since China regained Scarborough Shoal.

China's actions in the South China Sea have drawn widespread attention from the international community, and here are the reactions from all sides:

Philippines:

The Philippines reacted strongly to China's recent actions, calling the normal patrolling activities of Chinese coast guard vessels "intrusive patrols" and claiming that its coast guard was closely monitoring the movements of Chinese vessels.

United States:

The United States expressed support for the Philippines and accused China's actions in the South China Sea region as "provocative."

ASEAN Countries:

ASEAN countries expressed concern over the situation in the South China Sea and called on all parties concerned to exercise restraint and resolve disputes through dialogue and consultation.

China's position and actions on the South China Sea issue will have an important impact on the situation in the South China Sea. The development of the situation in the South China Sea will remain uncertain.
