Is China Quietly Encroaching on Vietnam in the South China Sea? | Taiwan Talks EP414

[@devolutioninc]

China tells the Philippines that it wants bilateral talks/agreement and that no third party should interfere. China tells Vietnam that it wants bilateral talks/agreement and that no third party should interfere. China tells Brunei that it wants bilateral talks/agreement and that no third party should interfere. China tells Malaysia that it wants bilateral talks/agreement and that no third party should interfere. Then China goes and violates these countries and ASEAN can't interfere. China has just divided and conquered. It rendered the ASEAN a useless political bloc.

[@PeteViray]

China insisted to discussed the territorial and sovereignty rights through bilateral talks, without third party involvement,how can china be trusted considering that they are violating the rules of the intl law and order.They used their military and economic mights with fake narratives to let intl community to believe their claims.

2011年10月，越共中央总书记阮富仲和中共中央总书记胡锦涛在北京会晤。时任中共总书记胡锦涛在一次讲话中，把主要思想说得很清楚： “我们不能放弃九段线，因为九段线是留下的‘历史’。如果我们放弃它，中国人民就不会追随我们。” 越南共产党总书记阮富仲在回答这个问题时说： “同志们，你们错了，那条路不是历史留下的路。这条路是蒋介石的。 我们和我们的同志都不承认识蒋介石，怎么承认识他们的产品呢？同志们讲历史的话，不应该讲《二十四史》或者《1904年皇朝直省地舆全图》吗？ （总的来说，阮富仲总书记巧妙地提醒胡锦涛总书记, 如果他承认蒋介石，就等于承认台湾不再是中国的一部分） 至此，中共总书记胡锦涛只能保持沉默……从此以后，包括习近平在内的中国领导人再也没有主动向越南任何一个中央合作者提及过这个问题。 请加： -《二十四史》是中国历朝历代承认的正史。这段历史记载涵盖了从古代到清代的时期。地理部分没有提到比海南岛更远的岛屿。 - 《1904年皇朝直省地舆全图》 - 中国各省全球地理地图集是清朝时期制作的，于1904年出版，明确指出中国的最南端是海南岛。

For those who says he read from script, and it is prewritten/prepared from Vietnam gov: he hasn’t and shouldn’t make official statements for us, the whole nation as he does not the official spokesperson. But he is Vietnamese, so credits for preparing his talking points, also for his journey to further his academic research. I could see that the show wants to bait him (and Vietnam gov) to have harsher stance vocally on China’s aggression on EAST SEA, but it won’t matter what we said. Just like prof Huynh stated, we do NOT want to antagonize China. As for the response approach, I don’t think the Philippines is that assertive, recent escalation with China were results of President Marcos Alonso directives who clearly has some behind-the-scenes agenda backed by you know who. President Duarte was softer and arguably the Philippines also didn’t benefit from his approach. Now you want to ask why Vietnam chose the way we respond? While coast guards from both side quarreling and splashing water against each other, we’re quietly strengthening our defense, fortifying/building up our islands, scoring economic & trade deals, upgrading political partnership but also trying to resolve the issue ourselves. China wants to separate SCS claimants for a reason: to bully each of us easier, but also to test if they really need to project stronger use of forces (because some of us decide to include other parties - you know who). Yeah yeah, we’re destroying marine lives, destroying the sea environment, or we’re so cowardly, never dare to oppose China. Well we did, for thousands of years, and now they respect us, not very much but enough to let things slide once in a while. Our chief just passed, it’s a great loss for us, but we are resilient and self-reliance, so we’ll stand up and carry the legacy of secretary Trong, and the heroic leaders before him. He’s the reason US, China, Russia respects us, his anti-corruption campaign and tight grip are why we’re going somewhere, our voices are heard. You may view us as undemocratic, that our citizens are brainwashed and striped of rights, but here I am, writing on my macbook pro, from my premium youtube account that my parents paid for by their honest money were made under this communist regime. How about that? How about that for an opacity initative? Maybe you could use a little bit of tough love too? PS: apologize for sounding so defensive and unnecessarily patriotic, I am and a lot of Vietnamese (who truly understand and appreciate our country) are in grieve. I hope Taiwan and Philippines could resolve their issues with China, you guys are more than capable to fight for yourself. Please do so strategically and peacefully, we all need some peace and prosperity in this region.

If you guys study further, Taiwan actually validate China claims about historical evidence in the South China Sea. It means, not officially, but Taiwan also support China on the occupation of South China Sea islands. This is a very complicated issue, so it's not like which islands are more close to which countries, it's also about historical context claims. However, since 2002 if I remember correctly, these countries has to remain as it is so the situation is pretty much stalemate right now.

The US needs to wake up. Your foreign policy is seriously flawed. Vietnam is the best strategic partner in this region to contain Chinese aggression. Vietnam has over a thousand kilometers of common border with China. How more strategic can it be? US strategic partner, Philippines, is too far and any battle between the US and China will be by sea. One US retired general said the US cannot win a naval battle in the South China Sea. So, US, the sooner you wake up the better for this region.

[@Girder3]

You have completely ignored the wider context of the Indo-Pacific. Particularly the very important factor of Taiwan. In relation to which, the U.S.'s strategic partners of Japan (which you ignore) and the Philippines cover the northern and southern flanks. Not only that, you also ignore points of discussion of the video, being Vietnam' s own policy of neutrality, in which they have on their own accord, avoided taking sides. So I don't know how you think that it is a failing on the part of the U.S. that Vietnam is not a more significant security partner.

Being a Confucian Nation, Vietnam has to voice the opposition to China to save face. In reality the Vietnam is resigned to her fate. She had no Navy to defend the sea. She is the land power and hopefully to protect the border on land. However China has bracketed VN by befriending both Cambodia and Laos.. so Vietnam is hopeful keeping the territory on land and yield the sea to China once the gun fires.

[@Milololoful]

For the Viet guy, I am not sure if he really is who he claims to be? 1:31. I have never heard from my history teacher or any text book saying: "Vietnam was occupied by China for 3,000 years." 11:04. There is a song that depicts the 3 bloody long wars Vietnamese people fought the foreign invaders, and it goes like this: "1,000 years of slavery to the Chinese enemy, 100 years of domination by the French enemy, 20 years of civil war...". Almost every Vietnamese knows how to sing this song. And every elementary school kid would give you a correct answer for this fact.

[@arcadiomaxilom8297]

Realtalk, the closest country to those disputed islands is the Philippines 😑

[@Phoenix-bq7lw]

It does not work that way. China, or to be precise Taiwan, claimed the nine dash line under UNCLOS in 1946. Philippines ratified UNCLOS in 1954, hence agreed to China's claim. You think you own the land in your backyard. But someone has the land deed in your backyard. So is it yours? And furthermore your parent already sign to agree to the land deed. You just have to accept it, or no one is going to support you except for some land speculators that have no business in the area, hoping to profit from the conflicts.

[@Phoenix-bq7lw]

The best way is to negotiate with China without outside interference. It is doable. Indonesia's Natuna Island was also under the China's nine dash line. But in 1994, Indonesia negotiated with China to make China recognized Natuna as part of Indonesia for Indonesia to recognize the rest of China's nine dash line. China is not a petty country they are potrayed to be. Any Natuna problems after, were mostly fake news or misunderstandings to be solved by diplomats. Since Malaysia and Brunei had no problem with China, I suppose they solved their UNCLOS nine dash line problems with China amicably. So I don't understand to have at sea confrontation to satisfy Western media.
