97% is Chinese shipping, now what rocket scientist came up with the story about safe shipping ? who wants to control the maritime traffic. ?the west trying to choke off the trade in the south China sea. the U.S. and Philippines are not even signatory's to the convention of the sea. Germany literally on the other side of the world interfering

@deluxecapprian983

Every country who join UN and sign agreement free trade they have to respect international waters rules .China don’t so the only way kick them out from UN and block Chinese to enter in the international waters
