Ren'ai Jiao made waves again, the Philippines relied on the gourd to draw a scoop, stubbornly resisted to the end, my country skillfully used clever tricks, and the Philippines lifted a stone and shot itself in the foot.
In order to prevent the Philippines from causing trouble in the waters of Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea, China's coast guard has set up a 300-meter-long sea buoy belt in the waters southeast of Scarborough Shoal to prevent Philippine fishing boats from illegally entering China's waters to engage in fishing operations.
In view of the potential threat posed by the buoy barrier to Philippine vessels, a spokesman for the Philippine Coast Guard expressed dissatisfaction and condemnation of the incident.
Starting September 22, 2023, the Philippines has followed suit by placing Philippine-flagged buoys on a number of islands and reefs in the South China Sea, including Ren'ai Jiao, in an attempt to delineate a so-called "exclusive economic zone".
Different from the foreign policy of "not excessively cooperating with China" adopted by former Duterte of the Philippines, since Marcos took office, the Philippines has always taken the initiative to move closer to the United States in order to contend with China on the South China Sea issue, and the cooperative relationship between the United States and the Philippines in the military and other fields has become closer.
The Philippines not only announced the reopening of four military bases to the U.S. military and held the largest joint military exercise in history with the United States, and then Marcos visited the United States and issued the "U.S.-Philippines Bilateral Defense Guidelines," openly joining forces with the United States, willingly acting as a U.S. thug and meddling in China's Taiwan issue, and the Philippines also plans to conduct joint patrols with the United States, Australia, Japan, and South Korea in the South China Sea.
The South China Sea has always been a major issue in the dispute between China and the Philippines, and the Philippines has not only illegally occupied some islands and reefs in the South China Sea, but since May, the Philippine Coast Guard has frequently provoked in Feixin Island, Huoai Reef, Nankey Island, Shuanghuangshazhou and Oxbow Reef in the Spratly Islands, and has placed solar-powered navigation buoys on these islands and reefs in order to assert sovereignty.
A series of moves shows that the Philippines has tied itself tightly to the chariot of the United States and has become an important pawn of the United States in containing China in the direction of the South China Sea.
In response to the flagrant violation of our sovereignty, and in order to avoid a conflict between our country and the Philippine Coast Guard, our fishermen took the initiative to assemble some 20 fishing boats near the horseshoe crab reef, 11 nautical miles from Mahuan Island, which is illegally occupied by the Philippines, in preparation for the salvage of these illegally placed buoys.
