welcome to Crossroads the United States just launched a new military command in Japan with the intent of countering threats from the Chinese Communist party and this happens alongside similar actions such as the United States upgrading military bases in Australia deploying new missile systems to the Philippines also making a new defense agreement with the Philippines and actually a lot of other things like this now among Asian partners and with NATO Partners in Europe it appears that many countries right now are shifting their focus to focus on threats from the Chinese Communist party and this looks like a new Asia pivot now what’s now unfolding looks like a reverse going back to the older defense policy that had been derailed by other conflicts and then you know by the co outbreak and then by the Russian war in Ukraine go back in time 2011 the United States launched the pivot to Asia and what that did was refocused the military on the asia-pacific region responding to the ccp’s you know launch at the time of aggressions into the South China Sea and the East China Sea now given that at the time the pivot was more about freedom of navigation operations to ensure that the Chinese Communist Party couldn’t take over the region which you’re still trying to do and then you know deny America access and its allies access to shipping channels but as a situation grew other Regional Powers also came to recognize the ccp’s threats Japan and notably began growing its military again they changed some of their own defense policies because of the incursions into their Waters by the CCP Australia joined this Alliance as well India joined it the US focus in the region largely remained but other conflicts then started overshadowing the threats of the CCP Russia covid so on until now with Russia NATO has now declared that the Chinese Communist party is the key enabler of its war in Ukraine you know stopping the war in other words and preventing it from being resolved on Russia’s terms and that means that the United States and its allies need to focus on the CCP in regards to that war because again the CCP is the enabler and as Russia and the CCP sent bombers into the air defense zone of Alaska the United States and its allies including Canada Finland and others NATO countries as well they’re also now focusing on the Arctic and there’s even more examples like this in fact across the board the situation is now shifting and the Chinese Communist part is becoming the new focus of militaries looking to defend against these growing threats now a few shifts have been taking place recently the CCP made some gestures to other nations to either act as a peace broker or to try to cool some of its existing tensions behind this though the Chinese Communist Party hasn’t changed the acts of you know to call for peace they include the CCP blocking piece and then demanding deals on its terms its Mafia tactics and its calls into gestures to you know cool tensions and so on particularly in the South China Sea they’re already running into problems because as they talk about hey let’s uh cool tensions they’re still threatening these countries sometimes in the same breath take for instance the Philippines they found an agreement with the CCP to cool their tensions over their disputes in the South China Sea now they’re saying the CCP misled them them on what the deal actually entailed Reuters said this they said the Philippines foreign Ministry accused China on Sunday just recently of mischaracterizing an arrangement between them that allowed the unimpeded resupply of Philippino troops stationed on a beach Naval vessel in the South China Sea they say the Philippine foreign Ministry spokesperson teras daza said on Saturday the resupply mission that day was completed without incident while Chinese Cod Co guard vessels were at a reasonable distance however her Chinese counterpart said that China’s Coast Guard was notified ahead of the mission and had quote let the vessel through after an onthe scene confirmation now here’s the direct quote from the Philippines foreign Ministry it said quote it is unfortunate that the MFA spokesperson has mischaracterized the Philippines roore Mission yesterday morning instead of acknowledging how the two countries were able to manage differences in order to avoid miscalculation and misunderstanding the spokesperson chose to misrepresent what has been agreed between the Philippines and China now here’s why that matters the Chinese Communist party’s demands from the beginning with its claims to the South chin Sea and the East China Sea and so on even going back to their claimed ownership over airspace with its air defense authorization zone or Adis declared in the region now here’s why that matters the Chinese Communist party’s demands from the very beginning when it started claiming ownership of the entire South China Sea the East China Sea even going back to when it you know created this ad an air defense identification Zone over pretty much the whole region as well was that the CCP was demanding that other countries ask permission to China if they want to travel through the region so if countries start asking permission to the CCP if they want to go to you know through the South China Sea that represents a step towards affirming the ccp’s claims and so when the CCP says yeah the Philippines communicated with us and we let them through that is on that same note and interestingly you know the Philippines are not changing their stance on their disputed region either they claim they own certain parts of that as well and so the CCP you know mischaracterizing this becomes a real problem for this deal because on the CCP side they’re basically saying hey we won we let you through and the Philippines is saying no we came to a mutual agreement not one side over the other but even more important the Philippines made another deal they signed a defense pact with Japan and the nature of that Packa was a focus on challenging the Chinese Communist party and in addition to this the CCP is also threatening the Philippines now you know despite that surface gesture to cool tensions because the Philippines is still moving moving forward with other defensive agreements including notably with the United States earlier this year during joint military drills the United States deployed a Typhon missile system in the Philippines now those are intermediate range missiles and the CCP now appears to be threatening the Philippines over that to try to make them push out the United States reuter said the Chinese foreign minister W ye has warned the Philippines over the US intermediate range missile deployment saying such a move could fuel Regional tensions and Spark an arms race this say Wong said relations between the countries are facing challenges because the Philippines has repeatedly violated the consensus of both sides and its own commitments blaming the Philippines and saying it’s the Philippines fault right and he said quote if the Philippines introduces the US intermediate range missile system it will create tension and confrontation in the region and Trigger an arms race was is which is completely not in line with the interests and wishes of the Filipino people Wong said seemingly even though he’s from China claiming to represent the Filipino people now on that what is the Philippines doing well they don’t seem interested in backing down in fact its officials are now saying they will hold their ground against the Chinese Communist party uh the ccp’s threats in other words are not working they’re actually having an opposite effect and not only that but after the CCP made these threats the Philippines just expanded their defense agreement

party now the US has been upgrading military bases in Australia deploying new missile system to the Philippines and on Tuesday reaffirmed the US unwavering commitment to the Philippines here’s the official announcement from the Pentagon US Department of Defense right here it says both sides celebrated the unprecedented progress in the Philippines United States Alliance over the past two years the secretaries reiterated the importance of the security Alliance and shared commitments of the 1951 United States Philippines Mutual defense treaty in an increasingly complex environment and this is important let me explain but briefly they say the secretaries reaffirmed that the mutual defense treat extends to Armed attacks against either country’s Armed Forces aircraft and public vessels including those of their coast guards anywhere in the South China Sea the significance of that cannot be understated now under that agreement between the United States and the Philippines it basically says if another country attacks the Philippine military or Philippine forces that the United States can move to secure the region now the problem they had until now was that the CC is mostly using its Coast Guard and these are regarded as not quite military ships and now they’ve affirmed that the Coast Guard actually falls under that designation so if the Chinese Communist Party tries again to block Philippine ships Rams them attacks people with knives and you know axes like they have been doing by the way then that will trigger this again act this agreement meaning the United States then has the mission to go and secure the region meaning the South China Sea this means of course that the CCP now has a red line it’s acts using its coast guard for these types of operations these could really be almost an act of war or at least something that would trigger again the us having the ability now to back up the Philippines and help defend against the CCP and notes as well the secretaries also reaffirmed the critical importance of the 1998 visiting forces agreement and the 2014 enhanced defense cooperation agreement as the foundation for building enhanced Alliance coordination and interoperability meaning the us is going to be basically continuing its operations to cooperate with the Philippines on military defense uh really shooting back notably on the CCP trying to threaten the Philippines over the deployment of the Typhon missile system but also probably expanding uh cooperation on both sides which they’re also talking about they say both sides recognize that modernizing the philippin defense and civil law enforcement capabilities is crucial to ensuring individual and collective security Now look this alone is pretty big it will also seriously expand defense financing and cooperation between the United States and the Philippines in fact the US pledged funding of $500 million for the Philippine military and Coast Guard and it actually doesn’t end there you know far from it the quad Alliance is also doing a lot more now look one of the main reasons that the defense agreement between the Philippines and Japan and that missile system from the US and the new again defense agreement between the US and the Philippines why is that so big it’s also because to an extent because that Loops in the Philippines with countries in the quad Alliance that’s the defense agreement between the United States Japan Australia and India and that has a heavy focus on the Chinese Communist party and notably you know the quad Alliance they just announced that they will be expanding their operations for maritime Security in that region reuter said that foreign ministers from Australia India Japan and the United States said Monday that they were seriously concerned about intimidating and dangerous Maneuvers in the South China Sea and pledged to bolster Maritime Security in the region further in they state in security talks between the US and Japan on Sunday the two allies labeled China the quote greatest strategic challenge facing the region now not only that but the Pentagon also just announced new programs around the Asian region meant to deter any possible threat from the Chinese Communist Party CBS news said the Pentagon is expected to announc investments in Asia this week that play into the long game positioning to deter China just days after Chinese bombers for the first time ever encroached in the international airspace of Alaska despite ongoing Wars in Ukraine and Gaza that still threat threaten to expand defense secretary Lloyd Austin is making his 11th trip to the Indo Pacific as secretary as part of the pentagon’s focus on China is what it calls the pacing challenge it says Austin is visiting Japan and the Philippines on this trip as we just mentioned in Japan Austin’s expected it said to preview a major upgrade of command and control between the two countries which he did by the way they expanded that and notes in the Philippines he expected to announce $500 million in foreign military financing that according to a defense official will go in part towards cyber security Maritime self-defense they could help defend against an aggressive China which he now did now there’s also the nuclear threats from the CCP remember the Chinese regime has been blocking talks on nuclear disarmament and its news outlets have oddly been suggesting that countries even supporting Ukraine could result in nuclear threats the C CCP is indirectly threatening nuclear war the United States and Japan notably they’re now reaffirming their commitment to deter those threats in particular this includes a nuclear umbrella Newsweek said the United States reaffirmed its nuclear commitment to defend its security Ally Japan on Sunday by reinforcing extended turns which defied China’s demands on nukes now it says extended deterrence is a commitment to deter respon to potential nuclear and non-nuclear scenarios in defense of allies and partners also known as providing a nuclear umbrella according to the US Air Force Doctrine publication on nuclear operations in other words missile defense systems now keep in mind the US has been putting up missile defense systems in parts of Asia and parts of Europe they’re even talking right now with Germany about doing this this is triggering nuclear threats from Russia and the CCP which are oddly enough are triggering more nuclear deterrence to go into place not less and remember too one of the ccp’s biggest disputes with South Korea was around it uh deploying allowing the US to deploy nuclear defense systems there now look in addition to this the United States just launched a military command in Tokyo focused on countering threats from the Chinese Communist party and alongside this the United States also just upgraded its military bases in the Northern parts of Australia so again that’s new bases new defense agreements Australia Japan Philippines and maybe others in the way as well now remember both Japan and Australia are members of the Quad Alliance and these actions are taking place in the broader context of them condemning the CCP and its growing threats and this suggests a couple things remember the CCP is paying lip service to peace right they’re the peace broker but in every dispute the CCP is making aggressive threats all through the region and of course the CCP also just held military drills in bellarus right as NATO was meeting to end the Ukraine war and determine the Chinese Communist party is the effective enabler of that war in Europe then the CCP what did they do they held joint Naval exercises around the South China Sea alongside Russia and then the CCP sent warships off the coast of Alaska then they sent bombers and jets into the air defense identification zone of Alaska violating again you know some us International airspace and remember the CCP is doing this while at the same time making surface gestures at cooling tensions the words do not align with the actions there’s a contradiction it’s hypocrisy and countries are not buying it they’re seeing through it in fact the concern right now aligns with the CCP appears to be threatening you know in Japan for example there’s concerns that a war similar to the one between Russia and Ukraine could soon take place in the Asian region I’ll
