The Chief of General Staff demonstrated amazing skill during an adventure in the South China Sea, disguised as an ordinary person, infiltrated a supply ship, successfully deceived the Chinese coast guard, and quietly landed on Second Thomas Shoal. As soon as he arrived on the island, he immediately changed into **, inspected the soldiers on the wrecked ship, and held a lively condolence party. After that, he changed back to his normal costume and sneaked back to the supply ship. The operation was a ploy by the military to create heat, please the United States, and gain political benefits. A few days later, the Philippine side officially announced**, claiming that the Supreme Commander had inspected Ren'ai Jiao, causing a sensation. However, as the supreme commander of the first team, he actually acted like a thief, not ashamed, but proud, which really made the national character dusty. If Duterte is in power, with his temper, the people below will definitely be taught a hard lesson if they do such a humiliating thing. Prior to this bizarre operation, the USS Giffords, a U.S. littoral combat ship, had intruded into the waters near Ren'ai Jiao, claiming "freedom of navigation," while Japan had also sent fishery administration and civilian vessels to patrol the waters around the Diaoyu Islands. It seems that they have discussed it and will provoke the Chinese side together and add to the obstruction.
For the United States, they want to provoke China, preferably in the South China Sea, so that the United States can benefit. At present, the United States has no better bargaining chips for China, and there are many problems at home and abroad, which are very troublesome, and if it can find a breakthrough in the Asia-Pacific region, then the United States can immediately make a difference. However, let's be honest, even if there are some unpleasant conflicts, even local conflicts, in the South China Sea, what good can the United States gain except for the blow to its allies? Do they think that by using the Philippines as a pawn to consume other great powers, they will be able to show rock-solid "friendship" as they did on the European battlefield? The United States is still stuck in the zero-sum game mentality of the Cold War era, somewhat self-deceptive, and for China, this is useless. On the South China Sea issue, China has always advocated resolving disputes through peaceful dialogue and is committed to maintaining regional peace and stability. China firmly opposes any attempt to provoke incidents or undermine regional peace. Neither the bizarre actions of the top military nor the provocative actions of the United States can shake China's firm position. China has always believed that a win-win situation can only be achieved through dialogue and cooperation.
In summary, neither the actions of the military top nor the provocations of the United States can change China's position on the South China Sea. China resolutely opposes any attempt to undermine regional peace and stability and insists on resolving disputes through dialogue and cooperation. Peace and stability in the South China Sea is the shared responsibility of all parties, and any unilateral provocation is an unwise choice. In the face of the current situation, we should think about how to maintain regional peace and stability through cooperation and rational dialogue, rather than resolving problems through conflict and confrontation. How do you think a lasting peace solution can be found in the South China Sea? When it comes to international affairs, the decision-making of major powers has always been prudent and brooks no interference. While small countries may pursue their own interests, for large countries, they are more focused on the overall situation. For a small country like the Philippines, the actions of the big powers are a punishment rather than a beating, because the Philippines is not an adversary of the big powers, but a member of the third world. For the great powers, the most important thing is to unite more than 150 third world countries, a position that has been laid since the time of the faculty.
Second, the great powers need to win over the remaining developed countries, who hold various opinions about the great powers and are also dissatisfied with the hegemony of the United States. In cooperation in international affairs, these countries are targets that can be pursued. For the United States and its hardcore vassals, the big powers will generally beat their masters to show the dogs, such as in the Korean War, such as intercepting foreign ** planes that trespassed on our territory. Of course, for the country of the Philippines, the punishment of the big powers is only a warning and not a real blow. Although the Philippines sometimes acts excessively, the big countries will not beat it up casually, because this will affect the cooperative relations between the big countries and Southeast Asian countries, which is not conducive to the image of the big countries on the international stage. At present, Southeast Asia is one of the most important partners of major countries, and the relations and cooperation between major countries and Southeast Asian countries have reached the best level in history. The big countries have carried out many large-scale infrastructure projects in the Southeast Asian region. Therefore, if a major power adopts an overly hard-line attitude towards the Philippines, it will affect the cooperative relations between the major powers and Southeast Asian countries.
Although the United States and some other countries issued statements of support for the Philippines after the Philippine provocation, none of the Southeast Asian countries expressed support for the Philippines, indicating that the actual control of the major powers in the ASEAN region is very strong. As long as the major powers control the ASEAN region, they will be able to stabilize the entire situation and dispel the evil idea of the United States to "set the Asia-Pacific region on fire." Because only the countries in the ASEAN region support the big powers, no matter how hard the Philippines struggles, it will not help. To sum up, the actions of major powers in international affairs are very prudent and do not change long-term decisions because of small things. In the case of the small country of the Philippines, the big powers will only warn and not strike. The most important thing for a great power is to unite more than 150 third world countries, and this position has been the foundation since the days of the teachers. Second, the great powers need to win over the remaining developed countries. In international affairs cooperation, the goal of major powers is to stabilize the ASEAN region and dispel the evil idea of the United States to "set the Asia-Pacific region on fire." Finally, major powers need to be sensitive to the international situation and take prudent actions to maintain international order and stability. Do you think the great powers are acting soundly in international affairs? Why? Please leave a comment. In 2016, the sudden escape of US troops in the South China Sea arbitration was haunting.
Today, Philippine leader Pony seems to be unconcerned about this, still following the path of Aquino III and committing acts that undermine national dignity. This behavior is incomprehensible, is the pony going to do anything to curry favor with the United States? However, in a great power struggle, the wisest thing for a small country to do is to remain neutral and use the golden mean to gain the interests of both sides. Isn't it beautiful, for example, Turkey, how comfortable they are playing in the great power struggle? Why does the Philippines have to be like an eagle in the limelight and put itself on the cusp? A year has passed, and none of the previous cooperation agreements have been initiated, and perhaps the Pony family has tens of billions of dollars in savings in the United States, so they don't care about the development of the country, but the economy of the Philippines is still poor. During Duterte's tenure, he gave him face, and we gave him face, and the island-building infrastructure in the South China Sea was not carried out on a large scale. This year, however, the sand in the South China Sea began to blow up lively. Whether you want to step on this step or not, we don't think about your face anymore. Looking at other neighboring countries in Southeast Asia, even Vietnam has taken the initiative to participate in the Chinese-led Trans-Asian Railway plan. In business, the prosperity of the country is the most important thing.
Will their lives get better day by day, and will the Philippine economy still depend on millions of overseas laborers? It is a wise choice to remain neutral and not to be led by the nose by the United States like a pony. The Philippines can learn from Turkey's example Xi take a neutral stance to gain the benefits of both sides. Ponies should abandon the route and instead join the Trans-Asian Railway as a way to boost the economy. The future of the Philippines should be in its own hands, not led by the nose by other countries.
