Im Titel mal wieder die Perspektive Chinas gepusht statt der Perspektive der internationalen Gemeinschaft und Taiwans.

Pistorius: "Internationale Gewässer sind internationale Gewässer. Es ist der kürzeste Weg; es ist angesichts der Wetterlage der sicherste Weg und es sind internationale Gewässer, also fahren wir durch."

A contingent from the French Air and Space Force taking part in the #Pegase24 will stop over at #ClarkAirBase to demonstrate the European country’s commitment to uphold #FreedomOfNavigation and overflight in the region. #WestPHSea #France #EU #Philippines

Both countries are also negotiating a #DefensePact to allow them to send military forces to each other’s territory for joint exercises.

In years of #SaudiArabia bombing the crap out of #Yemen and killing tens of thousands, #Erdogan never uttered a word of criticism.

Now that the #UnitedStates and the #UnitedKingdom follow up on their warnings to robustly safeguard the #freedomofnavigation in the #RedSea, this muppet Erdogan in fantasizing about a #bloodbath.
Are you fucking serious, you joker? Some of the world is properly going mad and mixing up cause and effect here. #MiddleEast #seafreight #Houthis

So #Russia and #China cowardly abstained in the vote of the #UN safety council on the #Houthi attacks in the #RedSea.
And now #Russia wants to discuss the actions of the #UnitedStates and the #UnitedKingdom. What is there to discuss when marauding rebels attack civilian ships and of #seafreight's main arteries? The #freedomofnavigation is a very basic and important rule in a globalized world and #Putin's Russia is in no position to call anything a breach of #internationallaw.

Interesting mirror imaging of 🇨🇳 protest of 🇺🇸 position on the South & East China Seas vs 🇮🇳’s protest of 🇨🇳’s position re: Indian Ocean. 🇨🇳 response re: Indian Ocean also parallels 🇺🇸 position on South & East China Seas. #freedomofnavigation vs threat from proximity, including basing & visiting arrangements.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin: “China is the only country with both the will and, increasingly, the power to reshape its region and the international order to suit its authoritarian preferences. . .So let me be clear — we’re not going to let that happen.”
