China
The common denominator in all of the South
China Seas existing disputes is China. Beijing
serves as the primary catalyst for tension and
crisis in these disputes. Its declaration of a nine-
dash line claim of sovereignty that covers almost
the entire Sea is stunning in its ambition andboldness.

External Factors Involved in the
Conflict1 United States of America
The US has repeatedly stated that the
Philippine-claimed territories were not coveredby the Mutual Defence Treaty of 1951 whichties the Philippines to US. The US has
consistently limited its interest with thepreservation of the freedom of navigation andthe mobility of the Seventh fleet.

Currently, the United States have declared their
neutral stand in the issue of the territorialdisputes between China and the Philippines,
however, if the freedom of navigation in the
South China Sea has been violated andthreatened, that is where the United States
would take action.
8/10/2019 Uzbekistan ChinaPh PPT

And if China would gain an overall power over
the South China Sea, the US would encounter
problems:1. in terms of their surveillance and reconnaissance
activities
2. the freedom of navigation

2 UN
In January 2013, Manila said it was takingChina to a UN tribunal under the auspices of
the UN Convention on the Laws of the Sea, to
challenge its claims in the South China Sea..
8/10/2019 Uzbekistan ChinaPh PPT

Over the years, China has tended to favour
bilateral arrangementsnegotiated behind closed
doors - but other countries want international
mediation. Even if the Philippines is successful
in its attempts to pursue China at a UN tribunal,
however, China would not be obliged to abideby the ruling.
