SOUTH CHINA SEA tensions between Beijing and the West have rumbled on for years, but one expert told that while the region may feel distant to those, it is crucial for world security that Britain and other allies thwart China’s audacious.
One of the key motivations for Beijing in its audacious region is the lucrative shipping lanes and trading ports that make up the South China Sea, provoking President Xi Jinping to enforce a controversial Nine-Dash Line demarcation of what China deems to be its territory. This has sparked fury not just from Asian neighbours, but also other economies around the world as the South China Sea has emerged as a hugely important trading area where activities affect trade all over the world.
And the UK is one of those countries. A notable 12 percent of British trade passes through the South China Sea each year.
