Why the US is Picking a Fight with China in the South China Sea
Why is the US trying to turn ordinary, long-standing maritime disputes in the South China Sea into a regional or even international crisis?
I take a look at the US-led effort to bring China’s claims regarding the South China Sea to an international tribunal on the Philippines “behalf.”
I also explain the long-standing US strategy of encircling and containing China, and how this outdated plan sought to turn Southeast Asian states against China. It’s outdated because today, these nations all count China as their largest trade partner, major investor, and a partner in modernizing their military and building regional infrastructure.
These daily videos (Monday to Friday) are published first for Platinum Sponsors and above first, then made public later on in the week. Thank you for your support and making this work possible!
