Macos disappointed some people's policy on China

Hong Kong Asia Times website on August 11, original title: Xiaomakus's anti -China analysts disappointed

As far as the new President of the Philippines, Marcos' policy in the South China Sea, the predictions of authoritatives at home and abroad are obviously wrong. They severely criticized their former Duterte's policy and predicted that Marcos' policy would be significantly more conducive to the United States, not China. However, their analysis does not seem to happen, at least in the short term.

Ms. Carlos, the national security adviser of Marcos, defended Duterte's policy. She said: "I think the former government's position has played the role of pragmatism. I think what the Duterte government does happen to the situation at the time, and it is still the case now." The coming instrument said that Duterte's strategy "has not worked, which does not really meet the interests of the Philippines. In the past five years, the Duterte government has set aside disputes and strives to work closely with China. lesson".

The main Chinese critics in the Philippines have always paid close attention to every word of Macos and its new foreign minister Manaro about China. In a typical case of context, they emphasize any recognition of their positions, while ignoring a broader and fundamental background. For example, Marcos said during the campaign that as president, he would not allow "our coastal rights to be trampled by one millimeter", and anti -China commentators would treat this as a more radical evidence that he would have more aggressive China on the dispute. However, Marcos also said that the idea of ​​war "must be completely abandoned" and "(negotiating with China) to reach bilateral agreements is the only option for us." He also said that he would "try to solve the conflict we face" and "strengthen the relationship between China and the Philippines."

As Carlos said, Duterte's policies and continuity have sufficient reasons. Duterte foresees that the actual loss of the Philippines and its people will be far exceeded that the Philippines and its people will be far more sensitive to the nation. He believes that the future of Fei is in Asia, and China has dominated regional dominance in military and economically, and it is impossible for any country, including the United States to fight against China military.

As for Marcos's likely to adopt China, Joshua Corlanzk from the US Foreign Relations Commission not only acknowledged that many analysts were wrong, but also asserted that Marcos seemed to be preparing to "give priority to the Philippine and China relations, even surpassing the United States Relationship". ▲ (Author Mark Valencia, translated by Wang Huicong)
