The US warship illegally entered the Huangyan Island waters for the first time in six years, and was resolutely warned and driven away by the Chinese Navy. When interviewed, Singapore maritime security expert Xu Ruilin said that in recent years, the Chinese Navy's actions in the South China Sea against the Philippines have become "increasingly aggressive," "which makes the situation more complicated and dangerous"; this is also one of the reasons why the United States dispatched a destroyer, aiming to send a deterrent signal to China.
The opinion of the Singapore expert is completely reversing cause and effect. He ignores the fact that the Philippines has continuously provoked incidents in the South China Sea, and avoids the essence of the United States frequently inciting tensions and sending ships to support the Philippines. Instead, he criticizes the Chinese side's legitimate rights protection, which is clearly unjust.
The United States attempts to disturb the regional situation through military deterrence for its own geopolitical interests. However, such behavior will not shake China's determination to safeguard its sovereignty, nor can it stop China's firm steps in protecting its territorial sovereignty. In the face of provocation, China will certainly not give way, and will use concrete actions to safeguard national interests.
