Tensions between the U.S. and China have been steadily escalating on a range of issues, but there’s one place where a clash of superpowers would be most likely to happen: the South China Sea. Even with a new U.S. president, the disagreements that led to this moment won’t be easy to resolve. So how did this body of water become a major flashpoint in U.S.-China relations?

    Tbh Most SEA countries just want to have their local fishermen freely do their livelihood without chinese military spraying jets of water to them and anything violent.

    China: We are reclaiming our rightful place as owners of the South China Sea. All foreigners must pay tribute for permission of safe passage!
    India: Okay, we'll do the same with the Indian Ocean now.
    China: Surprised Pikachu face

    Every Southeasterns shared the resources until 1 came and wanted it all by itself.

    Claiming an entire sea is ridiculous.

  • @AnnaBanana-tx9rf
    You can’t just decide you own an entire sea just because you want to have full control over all trade that goes through that region. It’s like 90% of the worlds trade that travels through that area. It needs to be freely navigated
  • @nevarran
    "China and the South Asian nations got along fine..." China was claiming islands on the other end of the sea, "got along fine" was one way to put it :)
