As the end of 2023 approaches, I don't know whether to complete the "annual mission", and the Philippines is moving more and more frequently in the South China Sea. The Chinese side recently announced that the Philippines has once again organized a "supply fleet" to deliver supplies to the "beached" ** stranded in China's Ren'ai Jiao. In addition, the Philippine officer also personally boarded the ** to start a "party", to which the PLA responded with 5 "serious" in a row.
According to the Russian Satellite News Agency, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) sources said that recently, the chief of staff of the Philippine Armed Forces Romeo Brawner Jr. and other high-ranking military officials boarded the landing ship "Sierra Madre" stranded on Ren'ai Jiao in China, accompanied by Alberto Carlos, commander of the Western Command of the Philippines, and some other military personnel. They brought "Christmas gifts" and some supplies to the soldiers on the "beach"**. It is reported that the boat they were on this time was the same one that collided with the China Coast Guard not long ago. Brawner and other high-ranking officials of the Philippine army came this time to express the greetings of Marcos Marcos in the Philippines to these soldiers. Marcos previously said the Philippines was not intimidated by China's coast guard.
It can be seen from the public picture in the Philippines that the Philippine military top brass first wore civilian clothes and disguised themselves as crew members, and after boarding the tattered "Sierra Madre", they changed into military uniforms and carried out a series of posing photos. They even had a "party" on the ship, where watermelons and other food could be seen on the table, and Brauner and the soldiers ate watermelons and took pictures together.
In recent times, the Philippines has significantly stepped up its provocations in the South China Sea, even going so far as to collide with Chinese coast guard vessels. There is actually only one real reason why the Philippines is in such a hurry: this "beaching" ship is about to "reach its life".
The Sierra Madre has been stranded on Ren'ai Jiao for 24 years, and the Philippines has repeatedly transported building materials to try to repair it, but the Chinese side has blocked it. At present, there are at least a few dozen Filipino personnel on board. Judging from this ****, this ** is already rusty. The power system will definitely not be able to start, and can only wait to disintegrate or be towed away. And if the ship breaks up, the Philippines will not be able to build a new foothold on China's Ren'ai Jiao. In addition to cheering up the Philippine military personnel on board, the Philippine military high-level officials secretly boarded the "beach" this time, but also had the intention of continuing to expand the dispute between China and the Philippines in the South China Sea. Therefore, the Philippines will bear the main responsibility for any change in the situation in the South China Sea.
The People's Liberation Army Daily also expressed its stance on the Philippine army's successive incursions into Ren'ai Jiao, and used five "serious" angry rebukes for the Philippine military's cross-line actions: the Philippine action is a serious violation of China's rights and interests, the Philippine action is a serious violation of international law, a serious violation of China's sovereignty, a serious violation of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, and a serious undermining of peace and stability in the South China Sea. In addition, the "People's Liberation Army Daily" also pointed out the true intention of the Philippines, which is to strengthen the Philippines in order to achieve a "permanent presence" on Ren'ai Jiao. The Chinese side has also made it clear that this is impossible, both in terms of history, law and strength, and that the Philippines should give up its illusions as soon as possible.
The reason why the Philippines dares to be so "tough" is because the United States is "instigating and agitating" behind it. Some U.S. experts even clamored for the U.S. military to go down and occupy Ren'ai Jiao. What the United States needs to know is that in order to maintain the overall stability of the South China Sea, China has always restrained itself from provocations by relevant countries in the South China Sea and taken reasonable, beneficial, and restrained countermeasures. But if the U.S. military really dares to provoke conflict and confrontation, it will not be as simple as using water cannons.
