Video shows confrontations between China and Philippines in South China Sea

- Опубликовано: 5 мар 2024
- China’s determination to assert its disputed sovereignty over the entirety of the vast South China Sea has sparked increasing clashes with its neighbors in recent years, particularly the Philippines. CNN’s Ivan Watson joined the Philippine Coast Guard for two days, the first time foreign journalists have been allowed to embed with the fleet in decades. CNN’s Erin Burnett discusses with Seth Jones, Vice President of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. #CNN #News
Someone should rename the "South China Sea" to "Asian Sea" If we keep calling it "South China Sea" then they think the whole damn sea belongs to them.... 😲
This is one of the most profoundly sensible statements I have ever read.
I had ordered a nice meal of Beijing duck the other day and just when the waiter brought it a few guys in Chinese Red Army uniforms rushed into the restaurant and grabbed the duck
and said that I had no right to it - that it was property of the CCP.
Even worse for the owners of the restaurant though as more Red Army guys rushed in & seized the entire restaurant saying they had a right to as the restaurant's name had the word Chinese in it.
You cannot alter history at your disposal, you're broke between
How about we rename it to the "We Hate China Sea"
Then we'd have to change the name of that Clark Gable Jean Harlow movie too..
It wasn't a confrontation it was an attack by the Chinese ship
It’s a deliberate and unprovoked attack on Philippine government ships in Philippine territorial waters. This is an act of war.
Exactly.
It’s an act of war. Period.
By every definition it’s an act of w-a-r. (dashes used to avoid stupid YT deleting of comments)
This meets the definition of an act of w**.

China claims islands, saying it's theirs since ancient times. But they weren't claiming them before, when they're poor. Money is power. They warn that the Philippines makes things worse (for the Philippines) engaging other countries for military support. Switch the situation: China being tiny and no match to a superpower Philippines. Would they be suicidal to confront alone? Can the Philippines say the same thing: "China makes it worse for the Chinese by asking military support from other countries.
Chinese companies have gradually withdrawn from the Philippines to Malaysia
would US do the same or even deadly if one entered US coastal illegally?

go to study the history
It's WEST PHILIPPINE SEA NOT SOUTH CHINA SEA, on 12 July 2016, the arbitral tribunal ruled in favor of the Philippines. Geographically it makes more sense that it belongs to the Philippines as well, my brother worked in a medical center in one of the islands in that area, there are families there with children who are very dependent on these resupply vessels and the Chinese coast guard had been terrorizing that supply route.
When the Han Dynasty of China recorded the South China Sea on the map more than 2,000 years ago, where was the Philippines?

China should be more concerned about their housing crisis, unemployment, and deflation instead of some island close to the Philippines.
Why, the people will either work hard, or die. The Chinese will flock to become soldiers.
they dumb and dont know any better unfortunately
china will be emboldening more and more every year !

that happens in philipphine too， but ph is much worse😂
This is not just confrontation this is outright bullying
Philippine Military is a joke and weak😂😂😂..Philippine Navy can only do is just to cry, cannot defend themselves from China's Bullying..
No different than Democrats blaming Trump for everything Democrats are!
It’s same like Japan to Taiwan!
Yes cause Philippines have fishing boat
In 1947, the Chinese government compiled and published the "Location Map of the South China Sea Islands", which plotted eleven lines using undetermined national boundary symbols. This is an area of inherited historical sovereignty. The European powers that have long ruled Southeast Asia have long respected China's sovereignty in the area within the line. After World War II, the recovery of the South China Sea Islands was internationally recognized, so the dashed line map is widely recognized internationally. . China Coast Guard maintains territorial sea sovereignty reasonably and lawfully
On behalf of the Filipino community, thank you all for your support!!🇵🇭 Sending love from the Philippines❤

Qin Hui：“The closest thing to China's urban and rural dual registered residence system is the former apartheid system of South African whites against blacks. The common characteristics behind them are the inequality of low human rights, no property rights and public services.”
The most fundamental reasons behind China's registered residence system are three inequalities: the first is the inequality of human rights, especially the lack of secure housing and residency rights for Chinese migrant workers in cities. The second issue is unequal property rights, as the land of Chinese farmers is not their true property and belongs to collective land owned by the state. The third issue is inequality in public services, where government officials, senior officials, urban residents, and farmers enjoy a huge gap in unfair social welfare benefits.
Today, China's negative welfare system has increased the wealth gap and urban-rural polarization. Especially in the context of economic globalization in the 21st century, China's negative welfare system and low human rights advantages have become even greater. This has led to the exploitation and enslavement of the vulnerable groups of most of China's lower class farmers, resulting in the emergence of red sweatshops that exploit Chinese migrant workers more than capitalist sweatshops. If free and democratic countries around the world cannot unite to exert pressure on the Chinese government to improve the human rights and welfare treatment of Chinese migrant workers, then the labor welfare treatment of free and democratic countries will be affected and they will have to lower their human rights and welfare treatment to align with Chinese migrant workers.
For a government with unlimited power, unlimited accountability can be exercised until it cannot bear it. The way out for China still lies in a gradual and peaceful transformation, with two key points: first, limiting the government's power; Secondly, the common people should vigorously seek welfare from the government. By achieving these two points, the ideal constitutionalism and democracy will also come. I think pressure can be continuously applied in both aspects. Gradually improve one thing at a time. The biggest problem that ultimately leads to the current system is the problem of too much power and too little responsibility, constantly being compressed. When it comes to matching power and responsibility, China's political system changes．
As they say, anything but metric.

Philippines: These islands belong to us because they are closer to the Philippines on the map.
China: Philippines is also very close to us on the map!
Bullying neighbors and then upset when they ask America for help.
they're upset because the USA encourages the neighbours to intentionally confront china to force them to react and then broadcast only the reaction but not the whole story. ask yourself this, isn't it suspicious that USA journalists just 'happened to be' onboard a foreign (Filipino) ship in that moment? in a conflict, people from other countries fight and die while USA enjoys the remains.

This article has helped me understand South China sea better.
By Peter Y
"Why has Xi Jinping aggressively pursued Chinese terroritorial claims in the South China Sea?"
South China Sea reporting in the West is the most biased and wrongful one against China and one, if not corrected, can lead to a disastrous war that no one wants.
This story is not about China, or Xi Jingping, aggressively trying to take over areas of sea that did not belong to China. It is about how US changed a post World War II world order established between it, China and England.
Let me start with Japan. After WWII, when Japan surrendered. also known as the Proclamation Defining Terms for Japanese Surrender, contains the following statement: “ the "Japanese sovereignty shall be limited to the islands of , , , , and such minor islands as we determine," as had been announced in the in 1943”. This document was signed with Chinese participation. That is the “we” in the sentence.
Please note that Japan was not allowed to have Okinawa, on which there has been years of protest against US military bases. Neither was Japan allowed to occupy the island “in dispute” with China. US recognized this fact from the end of WWII until 1951, when it convened the so-call “San Francisco Conference of 1951” by specifically excluding China. In it, US made unilateral arrangement that would deny Chinese ownership of the islands that it previously recognized as belonging to China right after WWII and put them all “in dispute”.
These include island “in dispute: with Japan, Philippines, Vietnam and all others.
To this day, Japan does not have sovereignty over the island “in dispute” with China. America took over its “administrative” duty at San Francisco Conference from China and promised to relay it to UN. It never did. US kept the “administrative” rights until 1971 and then gave to Japan, at the opposition of China. When US signed defense agreement with Japan, the document had to be modified to cover “administrative” regions, instead of just the sovereign areas like all the other defense treaties it signed with other countries.
For betraying China, US, in return, got Japanese record of biological experiments done on Chinese people without anesthetics as well as biological weapons and denial of atrocities against Chinese people during its invasion of China. Japan is a country whose territorial ambition exceeds the size of her sovereign lands. For lying and for hiding from war crimes shielded by US, Japan is willing to subject its country to be a shameless vassal state of US. It is a country existing in shame with national psychological ramifications.
Now let us talk about Philippines. Why did US not return the island “in dispute” with China back to the Philippines when it left as the colonial master of the Philippines? The answer is very simple - US knew that the island never belonged to Philippines.
When US defeated Spain and took over as the colonial master of the Philippines in 1898, these two countries signed the Paris Treaty of 1898. In it, both countries acknowledged that the territories of Philippines lied EAST of east meridian 118. The island in dispute? It lies west of east Meridian 118!
It is really that simple. Philippine did not grab these island until after the San Francisco Treaty of 1951, from a still-militarily-weak China. But for the policy of “anyone but China” by the world’s hegemony, there should have never had any dispute in the South China Sea.
It is the same story for all the other island in South China Sea.
According to Wikipedia: List of countries with overseas military bases, China has less than a handful of overseas bases, none of which are located in South China Sea. Whereas the United States has over 400+ overseas military bases, in Japan, South Korea, Philippines, etc, surrounding China.
By who???
Then Chinese Government claimed South China Sea ,Philippine no exist yet，only thousand tribes 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.go check Philippine history 👏👏👏👏👏
@condorX2 Beautifully presented. How come china not bring these arguments to the UN ? They do own a seat in the Assembly, even in the Security Council. Or used it in Hague arbitration arguments?

@@janewu3178 you ignorant The Philippines already defeated China during the Korean war make a research on that
My biggest question is why is a Chinese Coast guard ship not on the Chinese coast? It's out in the seas around the Philippines.
Because china are greedy and wants more territory for expansion, because their country is dying...
I had the same question since the US sent their carriers near China. Why aren't they on American waters.
The China Coast Guard ships are protecting mineral and resource extraction ships owned by their rich communist masters. They are brazenly robbing the Philippines of it's aquatic and mineral resources.
They protect their fishermen while they overfish in other's water.
Because when Chinese people went to these islands, the Filipinos were still on trees.

@@KittyKittyCat-vf8zd First of, the 2016 Arbitral Ruling is not illegal. It is very legal not just in the Philippines but also accepted globally and has become part of UNCLOS. Only China continues to insist that it is illegal, despite being an UNCLOS signatory.
Secondly, China's sovereignty claim over areas within its so-called 9 or 10-dash line has already been declared illegal and this ruling was accepted globally.
Thirdly, China cannot claim sovereignty over the area by using historical claims because even its history and historical maps did not consistently and clearly define the Spratly Islands, Scarborough Shoal, and even the the Paracel Islands as its own territory.
Lastly, China cannot claim the South China Sea as its own lake and part of its territorial waters because it is not a lake and its not within their land boundaries. Even if China includes Taiwan as its territory, it is not enough to support a claim of sovereignty over the SCS, more so the WPS.
I love how we act so surperior. I wish someone would show us our behavior in comparison. Cause.... we are way worse in 20 ways
The bad thing is, if this is true we get on the news and tell everything.
But China has no experience in naval combat or any major wartime experience.
Yup!
It’s actually quite silly flexing for show but having basically zero experience lol
imagine a country that has fake martial arts try to fight a war 🤣 Their kung fu masters cant even beat up a street kid in Manila 🤣
True, but they would be fighting close to home and have lots of militia vessels that would also require targeting. Also, the US Navy is divided between the East/Atlantic and West/Pacific, while they can commit all to any battles in the South China Sea.
True, they are not warmonger like the US.
West Philippine Sea!
or East Vietnamese Sea. In Vietnam, we call it the East Sea. We stand with the people of the Philippines.
We stand with our Viet brothers too, and any other Asian nation being oppressed by these spineless cowards. Pinoy Pride from Australia!!! 🇵🇭
As a Chinese, let me explain the Chinese standpoint. The territorial waters in the South China Sea were delineated by the Republic of China government in 1935 with the "Map of the Islands of the South China Sea," and further refined by the People's Republic of China government in 1955 with the establishment of the "Nine-Dash Line." The Philippines, in contrast, was only established in 1946 and was previously inhabited by tribes or colonized territories. The surrounding countries of the South China Sea were also relatively newly established, with most of their maritime claims made after 1977. Therefore, China asserts its maritime boundaries based on historical legal documents. Even the name "South China Sea" was coined by China during the Zhou Dynasty around 1000 BCE.
Practically speaking does the british spanish and portuguese own all of the worlds waters then? Historical evidence suggest that they sailed the world too so does that mean that they have the right to all of the waters they once occupied and sailed on? No international law exist to promote piece and avoid greedy ambitious and expantionous countries like china if we follow china's standards and what they believed as international law then every country will follow and then you are triggering a medieval era here where war is only the answer to get what you want
Reports rooted in Amazing Professionalism.
The maritime law referred to by China to base their claim in the West Philippine Sea does not exist. The international maritime regulatory body is the UNCLOS which already favoured Philippine claim

The third issue is inequality in public services, where government officials, senior officials, urban residents, and farmers enjoy a huge gap in unfair social welfare benefits.
Today, China's negative welfare system has increased the wealth gap and urban-rural polarization. Especially in the context of economic globalization in the 21st century, China's negative welfare system and low human rights advantages have become even greater. This has led to the exploitation and enslavement of the vulnerable groups of most of China's lower class farmers, resulting in the emergence of red sweatshops that exploit Chinese migrant workers more than capitalist sweatshops. If free and democratic countries around the world cannot unite to exert pressure on the Chinese government to improve the human rights and welfare treatment of Chinese migrant workers, then the labor welfare treatment of free and democratic countries will be affected and they will have to lower their human rights and welfare treatment to align with Chinese migrant workers.
For a government with unlimited power, unlimited accountability can be exercised until it cannot bear it. The way out for China still lies in a gradual and peaceful transformation, with two key points: first, limiting the government's power; Secondly, the common people should vigorously seek welfare from the government. By achieving these two points, the ideal constitutionalism and democracy will also come. I think pressure can be continuously applied in both aspects. Gradually improve one thing at a time. The biggest problem that ultimately leads to the current system is the problem of too much power and too little responsibility, constantly being compressed. When it comes to matching power and responsibility, China's political system changes．
boycott chinese goods, that includes tesla's.
Tesla is made in the US.
If you're going include an American company whose products that are built in China are not shipped to the USA, you should boycott Apple also, whose products assembled in China are indeed shipped to the USA.
And Apple, unlike Tesla, has tiny manufacturing operations in the USA, relative to their operations in China.
@@user-zu5do6ri6r- Tesla has a manufacturing facility in Germany for the European market, and a manufacturing facility in China for the Asian market -- along with multiple facilities in the USA.

Good thing we’re being told we must drive electric cars lol
Just make a faster boat that they can’t catch pretty simple
Goodness gracious, I’m so glad this situation is getting more attention now. As someone who has both Chinese and Filipino heritage, this truly breaks my heart to see my home countries arguing. :(
wrong, its the chinese side who is being aggressive only because it can afford to even if it has no moral and legal right against the smaller philippines. china only respects might such as the US. for china, might is right. for the philippines, right is might. who now has the moral ground?
bloodline is not the case here its about the leader and xi’s greed. alot of chinese filipino living in Philippines hated xi’s actions
I think most Filipinos have NO "beef" with Chinese citizens, it's your authoritative government that tries to oppress us (And I assume regular citizens living in China are oppressed too).
@@Todd-rk2lb Yes, I understand the whole situation and have dug deep on what is currently happening. I stand with the Philippines with this one.
😀Politicians manipulate politics and stir up populism to suppress political opponents.
So, according to this video, things haven't gone wrong already? Adding further lines in their maps, expanding so far as to even send fishing fleets all the way to Australia because their own waters are fished out because they don't understand the concept of natural balance (which is ironic cuz of yinyang), sending direct threats that Taiwan will be "reunified" with the mainland by 2027 as in meaning it'll happen either with or without the consent of the Taiwanese people, and the constant increase in the cheapest and worst power plants known to mankind which has made it a country with A THIRD of the world's greenhouse gas emissions?
So that isn't wrong, eh? Yeah ok, "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" sure seems to be the mantra until it reaches the point where it gets all up in your face about it.
Another slow investigation by the just to determine whether or not if this was indeed an attack
They are salami slicing. It started under Obama, when Xi told him that China would not militarize the SCS and then proceeded to do exactly that. And the West continued to pour foreign investment into this country.
@@sonialelii9038 Well, yeah, that's part of it. But at the time, there was little incentive other than "you broke our agreement!" for the US to take real action. For every action, there's a reaction. Trump forced his way through, but even he conceded on key areas because of push from the highest US industries. So imagine what a democratic president, without a pre-established narrative, could realistically pull off sanctions-wise, or militarily?
It was one of those typical political moves where Obama at the time was making it appear as if they did something, but in reality did nothing. It wasn't the first time a political leader has done that, and it won't be the last either.
But the problem started way before that. The root cause of what made China strong enough to do all this, was Kissinger and Nixon.
Nixon was a puppethead in regards to this, but Kissinger especially was the root cause of the entire global stance on China. The "slogan" that Kissinger sold to Nixon, and spread across the world, was that instead of forcing the comm country (it gets censored if I write it out fully) to accept democracy, Kissinger thought it would be better to "sell" democracy to them.
So by pumping money into their country, they'd "see the good of democracy". This was a stance Kissinger held throughout his entire life, except in the latter years when he openly admitted that he thought the world should just "give in to China already".
It's only recently that the US businesses are waking up to the problem, while Europe on the other hand is currently accepting any "helping hand" given to them.
Then Chinese Government claimed South China Sea ,Philippine no exist yet，only thousand tribes 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.go check Philippine history 👏👏👏👏👏.Guam is in Philippine sea,👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍go get it (what happens?)

First remove the plank out of your own eye before going after the speck of the other.
the civility and patience shown by the philippines towards china, it shows their integrity and that they are the rightful owner of the contested waters, but the barbaric acts of china, using power to acquire what they do not own shows its not theirs. china is like a child snatching someone else's candy, the philippines restraining himself still being polite and kind, understanding china
Philippine needs to crack down even more on corruption at institutional level to prevent anymore wastage of tax payers money and use it modernize their Navy and Air Force. You don't see China doing that stunt on S.Korea or Japan
It is not civility. The Philippines military capability had been castrated because of corruption. Now even talking about buying submarines that only corrupt government officials will benefit. Needs to start thinking about how drones Ukraine had been using successfully against Russia's much superior naval forces can be effective against Chinese naval forces.
You can not fight a battle that you can't win, this is fear nothing like integrity

You should report on that feature made by GMA7 documenting CH’s moves from 2018. In that video, they were able to record how a CH “fisherman” first just casually approached a Pinoy fisherman in Philippines territory (Shalborough Shoal).. Casually Taking some of his catch. The right thing for our fisherman to do back then was say *“Hey! You're tresspassing! Why are you here?”* but NO... Bec. Of ignorance of the law AND no Philippine coastguard to implement law on site, Our poor Fisherman felt inferior in his Own Turf, and allowed the CH Tresspasser to take his fish. If you're a powerful country... That's INTEL. It means that and is unguarded and ripe for the taking.
Reporters returned a few years later and found that after 2-3 years, there are CH coastguards in the area. Wow! The development from their first visit was quick. From taking fish on out own turf.. To situating their own govt. Vessels!
Then 2024... It's this. They have gained full confidence and trying to brainwash people with this crap.
I think as professionals, you'd do better at relaying this part of the story.. Fast forward to now, they have fully gotten that confidence to just hose our people down with water in our own country.
This is the news feature which has record from 2018: ruclips.net/video/EE1BM-z_tvg/видео.htmlsi=vJJnv32LYmpQK8o0

Another circus show in SCS.
Then Chinese people claimed South China Sea ,Philippine no exist yet😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
It's not the number of ships, but rather the abilities of that fleet. Most of the Chinese ships have limited sailing range.
The Philippine Navy were having a sleep in that morning...bless
To be fair a US ship escorting a resupply ship would send a firm message to China.
But philippines would not want to do it, they think it will make the situation worse 🤦🤦
They wouldn’t dare try that if the US was there lol.
The United States does not recognize the Scarborough Shoal as Philippines territory but only disputed territory in international waters.

When American News agencies state that China has the largest Navy in the world, they're saying it because of the shock value. In numerical numbers they have more ships and boats than the US Navy. But that's like saying an army that includes counting bicycles as vehicles has the world's largest number of army vehicles. The US has the most powerful navy by far over any other and it's because those ships are so powerful that they don't need as many. Please don't be fooled by the exaggerations of journalists.
We all know they have the numbers. All "Made in China. "
You are so intelligent.
True quantity vs quality
Do you realize the US carriers can be easily sunk by Chinese hypersonic missiles. That’s why US no longer sends its carriers close to Taiwan.
This is international news, so they're aware the Chinese are watching. It's part of their tactic to make China feel complacent. When the war comes (I hope to God it doesn't), the US navy would easily sink their bicycles... erm, ships.
Lord Protect the philippine ship and coast guard
This damn ocean needs to be called as S.E.A.S (South East Asian Sea)
semantics, please correct the title of this video | like you said in the end of the video, there was a United Nations (U.N.) Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) arbitral ruling that needs to be followed
*West Philippine Sea
More territory... more resources... more firepower...

@@carltan1526 Do that. Clearly you need to learn history... or it wont matter even if you would. Communist mentality.
Quantity vs quality here...
what quality do you have?
@@HAKULAMATATA8 If you want to look at the ships themselves let's start with aircraft carriers. The United States has 11 aircraft carriers to 3 for China. Of thoses 3 for China one is an old had me down Russian carrier that is obsolete. And that leads me to what the carriers main function is and that's air power. US pilots are better trained and have more experience than Chinese pilots. The avg American pilots get more seat time and have better maintenance and logistics than China. The air force has way more radar and air refueling planes as well. I can go on and on but you get the point. The United States spends almost a 900 billion a year on defense while China spends 230. It would be a bloody fight on both sides but China would lose in an war with us.
I got your point..but maybe china is hiding their other weapons etc.like that..
@@KairohSen don't think they can hide aircraft carriers or anything else per say. The US has more satellites and surveillance than anyone so.
@@mikeglenn5212 No one would win bud

Why are our stuff still made in china?
Don’t worry, a lot of companies are pulling out. It takes time to setup somewhere else.
Because your political leaders shook hands with corporate bureaucrats made policies on imports and sold you out decades ago. Now that foreign industry has grown massively off of essentially slave labor. To put it simply US manufacturing can't compete in any profitable sense. Are you going to pay $500 for something made here that you can get for $100 off Temu ?

Navigating the intricacies of international relations, especially in areas as complex as the South China Sea, requires a lot of patience, diplomacy, and understanding from all involved. It's encouraging to see discussions and reports on these matters because awareness and understanding are the first steps towards finding peaceful solutions. It's crucial that all parties involved strive for dialogue and cooperation, focusing on mutual respect and international laws to ensure stability and peace in the region. The path to resolution may be challenging, but with continued effort and global support, it's possible to achieve a harmonious outcome that benefits everyone.
There were hundreds of diplomatic protests filed by the Philippines for years and there was an international ruling already, yet the CCP continues to disregard any of these. I don't think a harmonious outcome will be reached if China refuses to acknowledge the fact that these waters belong to EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone) of the Philippines.

The whole world should reflect on why there are wars wherever there is the United States.
"Even though it's much closer to Philippine territory". Are you going to judge territory based on distance to mainland? Then US took quite some territories don't belong to it, lol
Also US spending over 3% of its GDP on military while China barely spends 1.5%, "CHINA IS PREPARING FOR WAR"
Of course China is building up its naval fleet. When it tries for Taiwan, it's going to have to try to take everything it wants in the South China Sea all at once. That means Taiwan, Japan and South Korea in direct military combat for supremacy.
I think China would be willing to enter direct combat with other countries in the region as well, which would explain why China was so determined to get Australia to become dependent on it for economic ties, materials, minerals, manufacturing, etc.
Not only do I think China will try all three neighboring countries at once, I believe that's the only thing that has kept them from trying for Taiwan. I also wouldn't be surprised if China keeps supplying Russia weapons in hopes of weakening it to the point of Russia becoming heavily reliant on China as a trade partner, for manufacturing, for technology, and even military protection as Russia's military gets more and more hollowed out by Ukraine.
Dictator Xi wants everything from China's claimed lands that was taken during the Century of Shame. That includes land taken by the Soviet Union. China wants revenge against Japan. China wants revenge against the West for the Opium Wars, which explains why China is funneling fentanyl precursor chemicals to Mexico's cartels to kill US citizens.
On the other hand, you have another dictator, Putin, who wants back everything the Soviet Union lost during its collapse. It wants all of the land, all of the resources, all of the populations' obedience. It doesn't matter if it's a NATO country because he has his Russian oligarchs' money completely funding the MAGA movement, as well as the extreme Left in hopes of causing as much division and chaos as possible. As if that wasn't enough, he has his malignantly narcissistic, greed driven, overcompensating useful idiot as the Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, a puppet that has already sold out Ukraine AND NATO to curry favor with his daddy Putin.
The US, Europe, and a slew of other countries are in for a rude awakening if the Republican Party doesn't stop their fascist bullshit. If the Left doesn't pull their heads out of their asses and refuses to vote for Biden, Democrats, and democracy, then the world WILL see World War 3 starting within 5 years, with Russia and China being the culprits and aggressors.
I think WW3 is inevitable. The west can’t properly organize a coalition of countries to help Ukraine defeat Russia. Instead they talk of only ensuring that Russia doesn’t win. There’s no way they’re going to increase production of everything in time. Their weakness is that arms are supplied by private companies, and so you have to play by the rules of the market. China is a dictatorship and simply orders their production to 100%. The west could go on a wartime footing, but they won’t; not until hostilities start, and then it’s too late. The only thing delaying full on aggression by China is that their economy is struggling and they are still vulnerable to a naval blockade. That will only delay, not prevent, war. And when the war is two weeks old and the US is running out of weapons, they will introduce tactical nukes. That’s when things will get really scary.
And Australia was stupid enough to lease the port of Darwin to these cowards for a 100 years.
Taiwan alone is too difficult for China to invade yet which is why they are building their navy. They still need maybe 5 years to build up their forces to take Taiwan- that's assuming they don't continue having supply chain issues for manufacturing. But time is not on their side as their current navy is not capable of upgrading over time like how US ships are. If they want new tech, they literally have to ground-up make a new navy. They going for numbers over quality. Japan and Korea are significantly more prepared than China so I doubt that's actually their plan. They would need to align with North Korea, Russia, and Iran, to even stand close to a chance with those ambitions. That would make it difficult for China to be seen as a "world mediator" image they've been dying to take so they can "replace" the US. All of this is saber rattling to see how other countries respond.
I've read that their Navy is not a blue water navy. It's described as a brown water navy.
