Moral Positioning In The South China Sea Disputes Between The Philippines And China, Eryan Ramadhani
Global: Jurnal Politik Internasional
For the past two decades, disputes between the Philippines and China over the South China Sea (SCS) have experienced continuous escalation. Benigno Aquino III filed an arbitration case against China. This legal success was later overturned by Rodrigo Duterte in exchange for closer relations with China. However, his decision did not cease hostility in the SCS.
