The lie-low but dangerous claimant in the South China Sea

First of 3 parts

PRESIDENT Marcos Jr.' s report on Saturday that he wants to set talks between the Philippines and Vietnam over Vietnamese vessels' "incursions" into the country's exclusive economic zone was vastly under-reported. This is because Vietnam as an aggressive claimant of the Spratly Islands (Kalayaan to us), which it considers as its sovereign territory, doesn't hew to US propagandists' and their minions' false narrative that the disputes in the South China Sea are essentially because of China's "expansionism."
