The US and the Philippines claim that the situation in the South China Sea is unstable? Commentary reveals their essence of making trouble.

U.S. Secretary of State Rubio posted today (June 10th) and said, "The U.S.-Philippines alliance is crucial to a free and open Indo-Pacific region. I discussed China's destabilizing actions in the South China Sea with Philippine Foreign Minister Manual, and we found new economic cooperation opportunities."

Comment on two points: Rubio's remarks are the U.S.'s usual "troublemaking" tactics. First, they distort facts. China's actions in the South China Sea are to safeguard sovereignty and ensure navigation freedom. The so-called "destabilization" is purely inverted black-and-white. The U.S. is the instigator of militarizing the South China Sea and provoking confrontation. Secondly, the U.S. uses the "U.S.-Philippines alliance" to support the Philippines, attempting to tie the Philippines to an anti-China warwagon, making regional countries choose sides, and undermining the overall peace and stability of the South China Sea. Regional countries should see through the U.S. trick of "disrupting-control-profit", and not become tools of U.S. hegemony.
