With the backing of the United States, the Philippines' provocative behavior in the South China Sea is becoming more and more outrageous and shameless.
According to the "Global Times" on November 28, when the United States and Australia recently held joint sea and air patrols in the South China Sea, the Philippines spared no effort to "touch" China, claiming to have monitored two Chinese fighter jets "flying around" a Philippine military aircraft that was carrying out joint patrol missions, and also instructed the author to publish the so-called Chinese fighter jets on the social platform X related to the so-called "circumambulation" of Philippine military aircraft.
Here, the Philippines spared no effort to hype up the tracking and orbiting of Chinese warships and aircraft, but the ** they took out was incredible: the so-called "orbiting"** could only see two small black dots. In the vast sea and airspace, the Philippines only photographed two "small black spots", and dared to forcibly pull China to hype, which can only show that it has gone crazy in order to provoke China.
The author believes that if the Philippines can take a closer picture of the medium-sized aircraft, it will never fail to take it out. I didn't take it out because the Philippine side couldn't take it. However, what if the Philippines captures it?The Philippines only emphasized that the so-called Chinese fighter jets "flew around" the Philippine military plane, but did not say anything about where its military plane appeared and where the incident occurred. It's not that the Philippines doesn't want to say it, it's that it knows that its accusations against China are completely untenable.
The scheduled route of the "joint patrol" between the Philippines and Australia is the sea and airspace between Palawan Island and Ren'ai Jiao, which is China's inherent territoryThe Chinese fighter did not fly "close to its face", and showing the Philippine military plane the live ammunition mounted under the belly of the plane and driving away the Philippine military plane can be regarded as China's "mercy" to it.
Marcos Jr. does not deserve the "benevolence" of the Chinese side at all. After Marcos Jr. came to power, he increasingly deviated from the former Duterte's China policy, and became the "vanguard" of the US strategy to contain China, frantically provoking China on the South China Sea issue, making China-Philippines relations, which had finally warmed up, fall to the bottom again. The Philippines has even tried to overlook China and work with individual ASEAN countries to redraft the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea, completely excluding China, the largest stakeholder in the South China Sea. It can be said that the Philippines, which thinks it has the backing of the United States, has completely inflated.
From both a legal and practical point of view, the Philippines' illegal claim to sovereignty over Nanhai Zhudao is a serious provocation to China, and China has the right to respond to it in order to safeguard China's sovereignty over a series of islands and reefs in the South China Sea, including Ren'ai Jiao, and any action taken by China to safeguard its sovereign interests is reasonable and lawful.
Twenty-four years ago, the day after the United States bombed the Chinese Embassy in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the Philippines sent a ship to sit on the reef flat on the northwest side of Ren'ai Jiao on the grounds of "leaking water at the bottom of the ship." In the past 24 years, the Philippines has never thought of towing away its "beaching", but has continued to transport steel bars, cement and other building materials to strengthen the ragged ship, in a vain attempt to occupy Ren'ai Jiao, its behavior is not only shameful, but also set a bad precedent for illegal occupation of other countries' territory since World War II.
In the Philippine society, which has a deep ** complex, no matter who is the **, it is destined not to spit out the meat it eats on the South China Sea issue, even if it is as tough as Duterte, it will not be able to completely suppress the domestic ** forces when he is in office, and prevent them from provoking China on the South China Sea issue, let alone the extreme Marcos Jr.?
To sum up, the struggle between China and the Philippines is, in fact, a struggle between China and the Philippine forces. At a time when the leading forces in the Philippines are growing, we must make a heavy counterattack to the provocative acts of the Philippine side, strike a blow at the arrogance of the leading forces, and let all Filipinos understand the fate of provoking China, and always keep in mind the truth that provoking China is not a good fruit to eat.
Now, the time to teach the Philippines a hard lesson is getting closer.
