When the Americans find a proper shill who is willing to do anything, they start telling them to do everything.
Who would have thought the Philippines would be making threats against Russia?
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said on Monday the presence of a Russian attack submarine in the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the South China Sea was “very worrisome”.
“That’s very concerning. Any intrusion into the West Philippine Sea, of our EEZ, of our baselines, is very worrisome,” Marcos told reporters, referring to part of the South China Sea within the Philippines’ maritime zone.
A Russian Kilo-class submarine was sighted 80 nautical miles off the western province of Occidental Mindoro on Nov. 28, Navy spokesperson Roy Vincent Trinidad said in a statement on Monday, confirming a report by the Philippine Daily Inquirer newspaper.
Philippine navy frigate Jose Rizal established radio contact with the Russian submarine, which confirmed its identity as UFA 490 and its intent.
“The Russian vessel stated it was awaiting improved weather conditions before proceeding to Vladivostok, Russia,” Trinidad said, without elaborating on why it was in the area.
Philippine naval forces escorted the submarine to ensure compliance with maritime regulations, he added.
To be clear, the supposed Russian sub is not in the Philippine EEZ. You can’t just say something is an EEZ, it’s something internationally recognized, by definition, and the South China sea is disputed.
It might seem sort of silly, the amount of sea China is claiming, but firstly, “the Philippines authorities” AKA the people in Washington who tell Filipinos what to do are also claiming a ridiculous amount of sea.
Secondly, and more importantly, China is claiming all of this sea because they’re rightly worried that those faggot Americans are going to come militarize the sea and block trade.
The United States has de facto territorial control over the entirety of South America, from California to Japan and Taiwan, and the entire Atlantic, up to the battle lines in the Ukraine.
The US just uses gay and retarded euphemisms about “democracy” to explain why they control over half the globe (or, more accurately, half of the realm). Chinese people don’t have this totally dishonest language. They are trying to run things in a straightforward manner, so they just announce they’re annexing the South China Sea, based on viable claims about various islands they’ve built military bases on.
The Philippines is the only country in Southeast Asia making a thing out of this, because everyone else hears “Chinese Trade,” and starts doing this:
Yes, Vietnam has complained, but that is getting smoothed out, because Vietnam has real national leadership that can be negotiated with. The Philippines can’t be negotiated with. Rody Duterte tried to negotiate a deal with China and kick out the US military from his country, and they just refused to leave then threatened him and installed this shill.
