There are some guys who think that they can start ww3 and somehow contain it in a specific region, this is impossible, everyone will suffer if this really happens...
I don't thing it going well for China. Xi Jinping just had to replace his number 2 general for the CCP military. So things are getting worse within China. If there is a fight it looks like Xi Jinping has totally gutted his military.
This is why I always say The West is blind with one eye. They never see the implications that their actions could result in severe blowback. Like a child they won't believe their action have consequences and they will never admit other nations also have autonomy of action that they cannot stop or delay
The disputed area belong to Taiwan (Republic of China); Treaty of Peace between Japan and the Republic of China; Signed at Taipei, April 28, 1952; Ratified July 8, 1952; Ratifications exchanged at Taipei, August 5, 1952; Entered into force, August 5, 1952; 【ARTICLE II】 It is recognized that under Article 2 of the Treaty of Peace with Japan signed at the city of San Francisco in the United States of America on September 8, 1951 (hereinafter referred to as the San Francisco Treaty), Japan has renounced all right, title and claim to Taiwan (Formosa) and Penghu (the Pescadores) as well as the 【Spratly Islands and the Paracel Islands】.
If that is correct. I guess most SEA nation would be willing to give it back because we know that Taiwan is more peaceful nation and they are more civilized so negotiations will be a lot better if that is the case.
you should know why china did not faced Philippines in the court of UNCLOS. the documentary evidences of the Philippines is overwhelming. you are only talking 1952.
@@juliousmabunay8844 For your information, all courts manned by Western counterparts are biased and weak in judgement. They are there to mislead transparency and protect the interest of the West so China knowingly noted and doesn't trust them.
So amusing to see the CSIS guy trying to pick his words on why the Philippines went so loud., avoiding saying that it was the US who made the PH to do what it does now.
You're mistaken. The Philippines are independent of Columbia. It even got Columbia to withdraw all its military bases. Columbia has somewhat come back at the countenance of the Philippines. I doubt very much that Columbia bullied the Philippines in order to come back somewhat.
@@Ernesto_Che_Guevarra phil had an agreement with China before, then phil denied it because their president needs to assure his billions of us dollars in an us bank... LOL
The purpose of a mutual defense treaty is to deter.. If deterrance fails, then the agressor has incurred the response from the third party. If the partners in the mutual defense treaty take no action to deter, then the treaty is, in effect, a dead letter.
You guys didn’t do your study. The Philippine situation is unique. It’s because Chinese has a military base inside ECZ of the Philippines. Some of the Chinese base is less than hundred miles
Both countries financially depend on each other a us China war would bankrupt both countries the US and China don't have to like each other but they have to get along for their own sakes
The 2 issue are On Chinas side: they need to realize their 10 dash line means nothing and the international community disapproves of Chinas claim in asean EEZ areas. They need to stop harassing the Philippines in this area. China also has to stop with land grabs with its neighbors. The USA: needs to not be so scared to be in a world with 2 global powers. The main issue is the USA and Philippine mutual defense treaty. If China keeps pissing off the Philippines they will call on the USA to help protect their sovereignty. The USA will do this mainly to keep China in check cuz they want to be the sole super power of such a level. Does the USA have the right intentions? No. It’s doing the right thing for the wrong reason. I could go on about each country but I’ll leave it there. And no. As a us citizen I don’t want war with China. I would actually like to visit but I don’t think they would be happy with Americans even in the country
It's not. It's preventable. There's no reason for a clash between the USA and China, especially being both nuclear powers that could drag the world into total anihilation.
@@yetao5801 The CCP has more border disputes than any other country on the planet. Pretty much all of their neighbours distrust them (even Russia). An independent court found that the CCP claims to the whole of the South China Sea are baseless and rooted in fiction. In short the CCP has been lying "since ancient times".
If you're a Chinese general and you see the map of all the U.S bases in the far east and the U.S constantly threatening to block your oil shipments or ships that export stuff to the rest of the world then you'll understand why these claims even exist. It's to basically allow for the building of islands that could protect China's supply lines in the event of war.
just remember it is a European tradition to launch a war when one believes one has the advantage of the moment. that's the whole reason why germany wanted war in 1914.
Deterrence didnt stop russia. Because the stakes werent that high. Taiwan being invaded would not trigger a nuclear war similarly. However it would trigger a huge conventional war.
these 3 countries just said TW is part of China literately PH's foreign minister said it few days ago, and said they will stay out if there's a civil war in China LOL
@@level1selamat155 learn history about "Hundred Yue" in Chinese history.. where descendants of Malay or Austronesian people come from.. Ancient Han chinese mentioned about ancient people in Southern China were fully body tattoos culture, blackening their teeth, practice animism and master of metallurgy and sailing technology.. which pin point to Austronesian cultures.. I suggest to you look at minority native poeple in Southern China which related to people in Southeast Asia people today.
"U.S being dragged into conflict" is the funniest thing I've read all week. Like they were dragged into Iraq, Afghanistan, vietnam, korea, Libya... poor America being forced into all these conflicts against their will😂
You can pick any person of Chinese descent off the streets of Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur or Singapore and he or she will know more than those so-called China's experts. 😂😂😂😂
Red China already has de facto military bases on the soil of the U.S.A. They're just in hybrid-warfare form right now. They're zero-day military bases.
South China sea...Chinese submarine base at Hainan Island is built inside a mountain James Bond style. There in lies the Chinese nuclear Jin class submarines (Boomers) so the disputes in the SCS are not about fish or anything like that it's about the US having the resources to trackand destroy "Jin" class boomers before they reach the androv trench and disappear ? Someone is banging on the door, maybe i've said to much...greetings from Vietnam
Philippine is committed to follow international laws since Indonesia and Philippines brought the issues to arbitration and international laws awarded the island to Indonesia then Philippines respect international laws decisions. But china is different they want international laws should follow their china laws.
@@fanghe-z1j China is a signatory of the international agreement which created the Permanent Court of Arbitration. By signing the agreement China gave the Permanent Court of Arbitration jurisdiction over China in international disputes coming before the court. So China gave jurisdiction over China to the Permanent Court of Arbitration and cannot avoid binding arbitration. Besides, the court applies UNCLOS as applicable law.
@@PeteHagen-sm4tn According to the relevant provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, an arbitral tribunal established under the compulsory arbitration procedure of this Convention has no right to mediate or arbitrate territorial sovereignty and maritime delimitation disputes, especially after one party to the dispute refuses to accept such compulsory procedures in writing
The Philippines is part of the first island chain to contain the Chinese navy.. The rest of the south east asian countries aren't. The USA also has been recently allowed to establish military bases north of the Philippines to counter China in case it finally decides to invade Taiwan. How is the 2nd expert even considered as. an experi
A war with China is also a war with whole of Southeast Asia. Most of Southeast Asian modern post-war economies from Bangkok to Jakarta and Manila were built by industrialists of Chinese descent with Singapore, a majority ethnic Chinese city-state as financial hub. This will affect sizeable part of world population.
As the Western economies are in shambles, it's the intention by the US and the West to disrupt the economy of the SEA countries in order to compensate theirs.
a war with southeast asia? what are you talking about? southeast asia isnt exactly impressed with chinese attitude in that region.. in fact Manila/Philippines is a strong ally of USA.
They should meet up and discuss the matter at karaoke or night club accompany by pretty hostesses. This is how army generals or dignitaries, during the olden days settle their dispute.
@@raulsaria2247 It is effective and more culture. The west should learn the Chinese arts of negotiation by using soft power and in a less tense environment. The West as usual resort to hard power which is akin to hooliganism. Time have change.
@@johnliew3437 ... Chinese arts of negotiating? I guess they just didn't feel like negotiating with the Fulan Gong or the Uygurs trying to find compromise and peaceful solutions. . . . . . . . .... like re-education camps or literal organ harvesting? Incredible modern Chinese arts. :-) Fulan Gong(organ harvesting) and the Uyghur people(re-education camps and forced labor). That's how they treat their own people. Chinese nationals. Imagine how they treat neighbors in the region.... (Tibet, what a soft power move they showed there huh?)
In terms of the Philippines, there is a legitimate mutual defence treaty that would need to be followed unless the US wants to be seen as an unreliable country by the international community. The treaty is pretty iron-clad. In regards to other countries, like Taiwan, I have no say.
Australia went through a period of China won’t answer the phone nonsense, when Australian pushed for an international inquiry into the source of Covid-19.
Spending only 1% of GDP on its military, Philippines shows little intention of defending their rights. Should the US help a nation that does not help itself??
Their last president rolled out the red carpet for China to steal more of their territory, which speaks a lot about their intention to defend their rights. Now they expect the US to protect them.
are you clueless? lol. Confrontations with China happen all the time in the South China Sea. We're receiving more and more multi role fighters from Sweden and South Korea, dozens of Coast Guard ships from Japan, new Navy ships from South Korea, Indonesia, France, and Australia, India just recently delivered their brand new Brahmos hypersonic missiles which is the fastest in the world, Israel delivered brand new artillery and radar systems, a few months ago the UK delivered brand new assault rifles for the army. There's so much more going on. To say we show little intention is insane when we're always confronting China every day and procuring new military equipment every month. We already have a modernization framework in place and we're sticking to it for the foreseeable future.
Even though the title is technically accurate, it doesn't exactly convey what it sounds like is happening with these "direct talks." If these two men aren't actually counterparts and the Chinese official holds no power and therefore can not actually make any agreements, then this is some variety of theatre. China doesn't make any real effort to mend the relationship and gets to make up whatever narrative about this meeting it decides to to the various audiences they have or are trying to get. All that said, Austin still has to go there and make a genuine attempt at being good faith and hope China is interested in doing the same.
can dw actually get an asian, any asian residing in asia to provide comments about asian. its the most populous region in the world for heavens sake. cant be that difficult to get an asians point of view about asia
On what legal basis though ? The dispute near the Philippines is about the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Philippines according to international law.
Phillippens and Taiwan are their own Nation. Aiming for their own sovereignty, self determination that a nation is a natural ideal basis for polity rightful source of political power. These countries further aims to build and maintain a single national identity.
Marcos made Philippines a legendary fool in history as the first and only country in the world allowing a foreign force to occupy 9 war military bases in its motherland.
you're clearly not aware of modern American sentiments. the US has no desire to attack China or get pulled into another war and Americans would never support it unless China attacked first or there was some enormous red line crossed that leaves no other option
The U.S. will no longer spill an ounce of American blood unless it is in self-defense, or to counter an existential threat to one of our closest allies. You are laughably mistaken.
@@doughvahkiin2885wrong! The US is trying to start another proxy war this time using Twain and is trying to give weapons to other neighboring countries in the hopes to destabilize china its a similar playbook used against 🇷🇺
50 years ago the UNSC passed a resolution that Taiwan is part of China it was supported by the US ,today there is no dispute Taiwanese chip manufacturers are the backbone of American technology if there is a unification with China American technology firms will get crippled
The very simple reason is that the U.S.A. Navy underwrote for decades already global maritime peace, security, and prosperity via fighting piracy and buttressing the freedom of navigation. The U.S.A. will *NOT* allow anyone, any military, any country, or any state, to carve out a region thereby infringing upon global peace, security, and prosperity. If you take a look at where the well-off countries are, you'll see that they're the maritime countries largely ravaged in WWII and fought over and occupied by the U.S.A.: Western Europe and Japan. Africa was largely left alone by the U.S.A. but Africa was blessed by Allah's Reconstruction for peace, security, and prosperity. Islam is the answer.
Columbia is an ally of the Central Government of China ruling from Chinese Taipei which has achieved Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's 三民主義：民國、民生、民主。 The rebellious Chinese mainland hasn't even got a legitimate political party.
@@ScentlessSun World including US UK France .. recognize Taiwan as part of China. Either develop some courage to say no to that in UN else stop interfering in others internal affairs. If US wants peace then stop supplying weapons to Taiwan. Are you ok if China supplies weapons to Huawei, or New Caledonia or Falcon Island or African States or Middle east to target the western military?
If the US is not playing with fire in the South China Seas and Taiwan, there will be peace in these regions. The US is not a part of the Asean region. Please stay at home to provide better care of homeless people in the US.
The interviewer does not understand what is the problem about ? Is it journalist jargon the way he asks questions or he really doesn’t understand shot ?
Whether there will be a conflict between the PH and China is decided by the US, similar to Ukraine. When the US needs an excuse to beat China, the PH will use the opportunity to fight against China.
So he is like a Chinese "Isoroku Yamamoto", except the Chinese Minister never been to the US to understand their future adversary! We better hope is sth. of Shoigus kind...corrupt to the core!
China don't waist your time not good will come out of any meetings with the US: If Asian leaders want peace in the region the USA most live , The USA is not a force for peace.
She’s part of the political problem. She over generates her position and others to engage in talks. That have gone no where! People like her got paid for no results. Explain that to a factory employee.
Do you remember the Vietnam War? The US Navy placed entire fleets in the West Philippine Sea and China didn't protest. To protest now demonstrates Chinese cowardice during the Vietnam War.
Do we really need more wars or is it high time to end those which have already been waging/raging? Shouldn't we evolve in a different direction instead of regressing? Hopefully, nobody replies with: Hamas, Hamas, Hamas. The answer is not so simple.
DW you need to invite a Chinese panelist to offer their views so you can understand their thinking. You only bring someone like this pro western panelist it does not enlighten viewers like me. YOU MUST BRING THE CONTRAST VIEW TO DEBATE. I hear this talking point all over western media
