SCS is a global issue not a regional issue, almost all countries in the world uses it. China is more behaving like Houthis
China has had owned SCS since millennia ago.
At that point in time, no USA yet.
And Europeans were still living in caves.
Without the Americans, South East Asia will suffer. The Americans are the most important partner.
During the Cold Wars which the Western Nations consider as an Ideological War under Fake threats, Lies and Rhetorics (Nukes, military expansionism, regimes, Human Rights etc) posed by Socialism and Communism and other countries (Russia, PRC, North Korea, North Vietnam, Cuba, Venezuela, Peru, Columbia, Honduras, Granada, Socialist or Communist regimes etc) and targetted chiefly at the USSR, it finally caused the downfall of Communism and the breakup of the USSR. Wasn't that achieved? And it then shifted to Clash of Civlizations which grew into a Religious Wars (Arab Israeli wars, War on Terror, Al) mostly between countries and people of the Abrahamic faiths (Iraq, Iran, Syria, Chechenya, Kosovo, Sudan, Middle East, Afghanistan, Indo-Pak etc). Was that achieved?
And today Russia, Iran, PRC (China), North Korea are still considered the prime adversaries by the Western Nations as nothing seems to satiate the lust of Greed and Power by the Leaders of the Western Nations.
So, what do anyone expects them to do? Lie in wait or do something to stop their Madness in their continuing Lusts? It has nothing to do with Ideology, Religion nor extinction of Civilizations of one over the other but are just the dreams, lusts and greed of powerful civilizations that believes the world only belong to them and all of Humanity must bow to.
Only Fools and Dumb Leaders and people without Wisdom, don't see nor understand and will continue to see their Nations and people suffer again and again under the pretext and machinations of a so labelled civilized Western Civilization model and idealisms which isn't meant for others or the majority of Humanity who just wants to live in Peace, Prosperity and Harmony.
Lousy country. ASEAN is a joke.. the CCP bullies other smaller players need to be confronted
๐Watch how he try to gaslight the world by straight out lies and lies by omission.
(Awkward moment for Antony Blinken as reporter pins him on Netanyahuโs threats)
US Secretary of State on Friday first refused to condemn Benjamin Netanyahu for his open threats to people of Lebanon. But when the American reporter cornered him on this question, he sensationally termed the threat โhypothetical.โ.
The CCP and Russia are the bullied
At the press conference after the meeting at the ASEAN summit, Antony Blinken in his answer to a question about the situation in Lebanon casually said : "…remember Israel was in southern Lebanon for a long time, 18 years and it got out in 2000…" What was it doing in Lebanon for 18 years in the first place?
It is said the secretary is the lawyer of netayahoo.
There will be China 32 destroyers, 16 cruisers, 64 frigates, 6 China aircraft carriers in 2030…..in South China Sea…..sure China will allow Freedom of Navigation to all except US navy ships….trade ships or tanker has no problem to pass thru…..
Ex US Ambassador Charles Freeman: โโฆso I think the changes have been enormous um and and that's even without mentioning the fact that Israel has become the most hated country in the on the planet uh and subject to ostracism rather than people pursuing contacts with itโฆโ
WITH THE PRESENCE OF USA, CHINA WOULD NOT ACHIEVE IT'S HEGEMONIC AMBITION TO EXPAND ITS OWN TERRITORY IN ASIAN REGION. WE ALL ALLIES SHOULD UNITE TO STOP GREEDY CHINA!!
China also has to do freedom of investigation near Hawaii ๐๐๐
Blinken has become immune to shame.
Stop building murica military bases all over the world… Can u do that???
Freedom of navigation…is a term abused by many Western powers and their cronies.
It must be viewed in the context the navigation is conducted …
1. If the navigation is done for the purposes of trade and the movement of commercial goods, such activities should be welcome and encouraged
2. But if the navigation is done on the basis of the show of force and strength to threaten the countries around … then this should never be welcome ..
3. Gone are the days when the Western navies can act like pirates and robbers in the high seas…
4. What rights have Germany , Canada, and the US having their navies roaming in these parts of Asia when they have so many problems to handle in their own countries
Blinken has the freedom of shutting up his mouth.
Knnbcjb
Shouldn't invite the US in every world forum as it always instigate conflicts and no significant contribution to the world only pointing fingers to others and China all the time, boring …
Blinken , Asian leaders give u face but they know you are hypocrite and war devils
The Philippines strengthens defense alliances with the US, Japan, Australia, and other like-minded nations to
uphold the rule of law, and freedom of navigation.
Facing threat of China's expansionism, growing nuclear arsenal, an expanding large navy, a multitude of militia vessels, ballistic missiles, hypersonic missiles, and artificial islands military bases China built on Fiery Cross reef, Subi reef, and Mischief reef, the US should deploy more TYPHON MISSILE SYSTEMS in the Philippines.
This evil warmonger's last ditch effort to stay relevant on world stage.
Letโs face it : the middle-kingdom will bark and squawk endlessly through its propaganda-office puppets, but WE ALL KNOW โฆ. They are absolute cowards. and will never actually do anything serious against an equal opponent (much less a superior one).
They are quite satisfied with bullying and harming smaller countries in the region (especially the free, progressive, democratic ones advancing in their prosperity)
Asean do not need usa to muddle the dispute.
ASEAN countries must sort their issues the right way or the US will sort for them. Please ask China, why the powerful China needs to annex Taiwan, bully Vietnam, and PH. That is the reason Secretary of State Mr. Blinken joined the ASEAN summit and the U.S. is still the world leader like it or not.
why so many non ASEAN countries are invited to ASEAN summit? CHINA, JAPAN, KOREA, US, UK, RUSSIA…etc
Even CNA comment section is flooded by communists staying in Southeast Asians, including Singapore.
China๐จ๐ณ in south China sea have maritime disputes with Taiwan, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei.
make maritime agreement & keep peace!
USA๐บ๐ฒ still occupied Puerto Rico, Guam, Mariana, Virgin, Baker, Howland, Jarvis, Johnston, Kingman, Midway, Navassa, Palmyra, Wake, Samoa.
USA end occupatiom & keep peace!
fast USA๐บ๐ฒ & Blinken recognise Palestine country in UN. like China, Russia, Bahamas recognised 2 country (Israel & Palestine).
The biggest beneficiaries for a freedom of navigation in South China Sea is China and ASEAN. Why would any of these countries want to disrupt the peace?
Freedom of navigation of military aircraft carrier??
Lao should have
They own freedom of speech
In countries they donโt have a freedom of speech
For their own right
I feel so sad for
For all Lao people
He can not saying anything
With China, the leader of Laos
USA has no business in ASEAN.. US is not part of East Asia..Nor part of disputed countries
No agreement can be made with US in the picture..
President' USA stop send money for Israel. it be better USA to alocate money for domestic problems like Hurricanes, employment, health, infrastructure.
Freedom of what?! The world sees what such hegemonic selfish self gratifying devilsโ hypocrisy had and has done to countless countries!!! Drop by here, gave a ๐ฉ for others to clean up?! Here, ASEAN, is not a tool to play with ANYMORE!
Western imperialists used to sail their war ships up Yantze river thound miles inland before CPC liberated China. In the 50s, they can only sail near China's coastal area intimidating Chinese fishermen. Today these intimidation is being challenged.
Butt off, Blinken, do not come to sell your 3-hand weapon.
๐Why is it CNA is a hotspot for wumaos? Just look at the comments below, all stupid chinese propaganda trolls. China is a tyrannical invader, whole world knows it
Nobody needs the US. leave southeast asia. The entire world knows the hypocritcy
Freedom of navigation is US propaganda tool , US will not allow anyone sail to their country at all. this is completely joke
Blinken / US is now on the menu for Israel in the Middle East conflict.
Everyone was in a meeting to discuss how to develop the economy, but Blinken stood in front of the conference table holding a "freedom of navigation" protest sign…
Blinken should tell Isreal for freedom of navigation for Palestinians in Gaza and Westbank. Isreal should stop illegal settlement in Westbank as well.
Crazy Bkinken, China canโt be stopped. Stand down
Philippines wasting time trying to take over an island in south Chjna sea. China will not let that happen.
