This move has triggered a triple challenge in the Asia-Pacific region. This article will interpret the formation of the "three anchors" encirclement of the United States and the challenges facing the Asia-Pacific region from different perspectives.

2. China Anchor: The U.S.-Philippines Alliance and the U.S.-Japan-Philippines Trilateral Security Cooperation
The anchor is focused on security cooperation between the United States, the Philippines and Japan. The Philippines has been fanning the flames in the South China Sea and undermining China's relations with other countries by using U.S. support. Recently, Japan strengthened its long-range air surveillance capabilities by delivering an active phased array long-range aerial surveillance radar system to the Philippines. Such cooperation has increased tensions in the region, while also increasing the risk of nuclear proliferation.

The United States and its allies, such as Japan, have supported the Philippines' provocative actions in the South China Sea, intending to exacerbate the risk of geopolitical conflict in the region. Such actions not only increase the risk of conflict at sea, but also undermine China's cooperative relations with regional countries. Such an approach poses a serious threat to regional peace and stability.

The actions of the United States and other countries have had a negative impact on the process of cooperation and integration in the Asia-Pacific region. By forming a "triple anchor" encirclement, these countries seek to weaken China's influence and thus unite and cooperate in the Asia-Pacific region. Such an act would undermine the development and stability of the entire region and challenge the regional and global order of multilateralism.
