#2 DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > INDONESIAN FM WARNS AGZ COLD WAR-STYLE CONTAINMENT OF CHINA.

A Caged Dragon is still a Caged Tiger-Bear by another name.

Wehell, I've always said that, like any other aggressive wannabe Nation-State in Histoire', Rising China doesn't want to wait until Year 2080, 2100, or after to achieve its perceived
"post-US" Manifest Destiny as Future World #1 - IT WANTS IT ASAP AMAP ALAP ATAP + IRREGARDLESS OF ANY DIPLOMATIC, MEDIA RHETORIC TO THE CONTRARY.

We see it already in Beijing's increasingly willingness to send PLAN Warships + Armed Auxiliiaries, even also LR PLAAF Fighter-Attack AC, to disputed island areas in East China Sea + espec South China Sea. HISTORICALLY FAVORED POLITICAL "SOFT" DIPLOMACY IS LOSING SWAY TO OVERT "GUNBOAT/BATTLESHIP DIPLOMACY".

Espec ala the longer Beijing fails to regain sole sovereign control of TAIWAN.
