good that you mentioned the south china sea sorry for interrupting because starting from 2014 china has been building artificial islands in the south china sea and according to your foreign ministry spokeswoman who actually in china has to right to deployed military bases on these islands over security concerns you know the states and other regional powers are accusing china of militarizing south china sea is chrism justify didn't why are you doing this. first of all those are not justified because we do not consider to be artificial islands and we do not consider what we're doing. kind of metaphors ation on the other hand the rigor rise the fall of all ration in the south china sea and the violation of americans own positions as they would not take sides and that they do not have a position on the sovereignty of south china sea to be a kind of a b. to rise ation china is not the 1st country to claim land in the south china sea and china is not of the 1st country to deal. with his. is to fold necessary defense this is our land and we've got to defend them so china's military has been on high alert to us mysel destroyer

southend-on-sea, pleasure island here. southknow if they are coming or going. we've got a right old ruckus going on here because nigel farage, who is one of the most familiar faces in the brexit debate if not the political landscape this year. you set up brexit the new party. you got a lot to thank the governing conservatives in opposition labor party for, haven't you? yes, we found the party, it was launched five weeks ago yesterday so it's very new. if you vote for something in a referendum and back it up at a general election and it's not delivered, something has gone wrong andi delivered, something has gone wrong and i sense that the mood out there in this country now for change and reform in a different kind of politics is greater than it's ever been. put your banners up. well, we've stepped away from the hubbub of the mainland to come to the end of the mainland to come to the end of the mainland to come to the end of the longest pleasure pier in the world, south bend pier, reaching out as it does towards continental europe

expect china to maybeue militarizing islands inhe south china sea, and what, if anything, can the u.s. do about it? >> i don't know what steps china will take beyond what they have already done. athink those steps militarizing the outposts are designed with a certain aim, and they seek to operationalize and illegal expense of sovereignty we do about it is we fly, sale, and operate were international law allows. we are increasingly joined by other countries to make sure no one country can change international law. in other words, making the havetment that the chinese made as insignificant as possible, particularly where their core goal is aimed at. we also do capacity building in the region so that our partners and allies have their own capability to monitor their theitory that abuts against disputed territories in the south china sea. what we expect china will see as this unfolds is they have taken steps that are destabilizing and in response getting more action from the united states, joined by more and more countries in terms of presence and absence in the south china sea and more c

china has up and created sovereign territory in the middle of the south china sea. man made islandsmiddle of territory claimed by many countries including u.s. allies. the u.s. complained about it but china has done it. it succeeded and china is stealing u.s. secrets every day. private sector and government sector secrets every day with great success. it's part of a strategy. they refer to it as winning without fighting. they want to surpass the u.s. they want to take what they see as their rightful position as the world super power and they're not going to let anyone stand in their way. >> we're so focused on russia obviously because of russian meddling in the last election and a lot of intelligence officials i have spoken to and interviewed talk about china as being a greater threat. >> no question. russia has a similar strategy. multifront as well. they also deployed weapons in space. they're attacking but when i ask officials which is the bigger threat long-term? they'll say short-term russia, more aggressive. longer term, china has more economic power, bigger population, not a

south china sea. the manmade islands there. in territory claimed by many countries. the u.s. complained about it. done it. it succeeded in. china is stealing u.s. secrets every day. private sector and government secrets every day. with great success. part of a strategy called winning without fighting. they want to surpass the u.s. and take their position as a super-power. >> we're focussed on russia. because of russian meddling in the election. and yet, a lot of intelligence officials talk about china as being a greater threat. in the cyber realm and the stealing of technology secrets. >> no question. that is in the book as well. russia has a similar strategy. election interference. but they str deployed weapons in space. attacking in the cyber sphere. which is the big e threat long term? short term russia. more aggressive long term china has more economic power. bigger population. grander ambition. a rising power. they see that as the primary threat in the shadow war. >> congratulations on the book. i have been reading it. it's fascinating. the shadow war. it's a essential reading. available now

think you have to be aware that the chinese tend to creep they built seven artificial islands in the south china sea in the first thing they did was put a military base on one of them with the runway so they extended their military ability in coverage in the south china sea which is definitely an anti-american provocation given that taiwan is an ally of ours and the chinese have never given up their claim to taiwan so i think you can assume if they build a route through there that they will somehow manage to creep their way to establishing a foothold on some ice packs somewhere and starting an operation and essentially challenging america to do something about it warning them up front we will do it before you get there so if you look over the past few years both russia and the us have demonstrated their power in the region nato's exercise in norway last year was the alliance's biggest drill in more than a decade. is it possible that the us itself is being a bit too provocative the arctic. well there are those who would say so but president donald trump ironically the first time i think in my lifetim

the navy decided upon trying to get some piece of the sea islands of south carolina right south of the coastline near charleston. you see charleston at the top, and then here is what are called the sea islands. sea islands are so close to the shore that honestly when i first, don't tell anybody, a welcome c-span might come anyway when i first went to buford i didn't know i was on an island. i cut them thought weight, i thought as a supposed be on an island by now. there's short little bridges. you don't feel like you're causing overmuch. what that means is these become the base for this launching expedition hopefully to retake sumter but also to just simply have a safe place for the atlantic blockading squadron. so early in the world of november 1861 the navy launches an attack on port royal island and the main town of buford. this the text that bombardment which was undertaken by the way, they got it in a day. they quickly overtook the island. marines ran ashore with the american flag and then they found themselves marooned for the next four years. of course they could get out and bac

shows restraint the us projects aggression spirit china showing his restraint by building islands in the south china seaestroying the ecosystem as they do it and militarizing those islands against international law and international court ruling. so what china is doing is laying claim to the ocean. not just any ocean but a part of the ocean that one fifth of global trade flows. and china has benefited from that liberal international order to recognize nobody owns the ocean nobody has to ask anybody's permission to execute global commerce. but this is what china is trying to put into place. why? because what china wants to do and this is explicit that henry cannot even talk about because he would be detained is china wants to create exclusionary areas of control. exclusionary areas of privacy that they can push the united states out. why? without the states you can intimidate countries like singapore. so how does your government feel doing business with the chinese communist party's policies in the region? because officials sound much different than you do. so we have to recognize that all free and open

whether it's in trade, whether it's militarizing the islands in the south china sea, about property that about intellectual property and those type of things. right now they're concerned about how they're going to feed their families tomorrow. first, we want to go to the american that pleaded guilty to supporting the taliban in the months before the attacks of september 11th. he's a free man. john walker lindh released from federal prison three years ago. some are questioning whether he's a threat to public safety. mike tobin reporting live where lindh had been in federal prison. >> he should be on his way to northern virginia now. that's where his supervision and parole are scheduled to take place, this is after john walker lindh left the federal prison undercover of night. the question is whether he is reformed. leaked documents reported by policy magazine said lindh continued in prison to get online, advocate jihad, prompting many to claim he's still a threat. >> he still as i understand it threatening the united states of america and still committed to the very jihad that he engaged

south china sea. perhaps most importantly, we need to push back on any chinese efforts to turn the south china sea -- they have been doing it for decades. they are modernizing their capabilities and builds manmade islands. well over $5 trillion passes through the south china sea each year and we must assert u.s. rights to fly, sail and otherwise operate in these international waters and we must make sure that our allies do as well. taiwan. we must continue to reject china's efforts to bully taiwan. taiwan has been a great friend of the united states tore the past 40 years that the taiwan relations act has been in effect and key strategic partner and uniquely in a position. we need to strengthen our critical relationship with taiwan. and chinese technology companies jeopardize our tell commune cages net worg. i support the administration's effort to i hope that the secretary of state will be able convince our allies to do likewise. trade is in the news today. i'm consciously optimistic that the administration's carrot and stick approach will bear fute even if the tariffs are painful. i appreciate the fact that we have a president who is willing o confront the chinese bad behavior. china has been a manip

they're building islands in the south china sea. they've militarized them. long-term raw material contracts in africa. they're building bases in africa. they have a belt and road initiative where they're building infrastructure projects. i saw a picture the other day, a rail line from northeast china all the way to rotterdam. they are on the move. they are dominating electric vehicles. they're dominating solar. they're putting billions of dollars behind these projects, and they have a 100-year plan, van. we're in a 24-hour news cycle, and they're winning. that's the urgency that i'm bringing to this race. >> i love your passion. i know where you come from. i know that this is real to you. what can we do, though, about the robots that are coming? i mean the automation. you mentioned automation and a.i. like that's a good thing. that stuff scares the crap out of me because i don't know how we compete. >> it's scary. >> are there policies or things you would do to help? >> here's what i would do. i'll tell you a quick story. when we lost youngstown sheet and tu

for dismissing threats posed by china including the aggressive missio militarizatiof islands in the south china sea: thank you, trace. joining me now is marc thiessen. >> good to be with you. >> let's start with ukraine. his son makes a lot of money consulting with energy company. >> yeah. >> ed: being investigated by a lead prosecutor in ukraine that his dad, the vice president of the united states, helps to get fired. >> that sounds bad. it's even worse than that if you go back two years before that in april 2014, joe biden is put in charge of ukraine policy and he goes to kiev with a package of u.s. aid money to boost the economy of ukraine including money for natural gas. three weeks later, hunter biden becomes a member of the board of this company owned by a russian -- a ukrainian oligarch. hes had no experience in energy. he has no experience in finance. he just happens to be three weeks after biden shows up and so this oligarch starts being investigated. and two years later, joe biden goes on a plane to -- he brags about it that he got the guy fired. the guy was investigating his son's compa

. >> but kayla, on the, is there any military build-up on the south sea on those islands no, that's notamps for the uigh s uighurs? those are job trainings. it's hard to say things as fact, being on the other side of the negotiating table, i would be like -- just facts -- i guess sometimes they feel that way about trump, perhaps, but i mean, these were just complete fabrications and nontruths and bargaining positions coming from this guy that only baghdad bob would have believed, kayla so, how do you actually negotiate and try and get a good deal when you're negotiating with people like that? >> well, the team here has said that lee ha, the vice premier, is an honest broker and they say what he says he will agree to and be able to sell to the chinese president, but there are conservative members of the bureau who have different views on what china should actually be conceding. so there is a problem where there is not alignment among the upper echelons of the communist party about what they'd actually be willing to do here, and that's one of the main reasons that this fell out we know th

restraint but us projects aggression. >> china shows restating restraint by building islands in c the south china seatroying an ecosystem by the way and militarizing them against international law and court ruling. so laying claim to the ocean not just any ocean but one fifth the global trade flows and china has benefited from the liberal international order to recognize nobody has to asked permission for global commerce so why are they doing that? because this is explicit which henry cannot even talk about because he would be detained when he gets back to china because to create exclusionary areas of control exclusionary areas of privacy to push the united states out because mithout it would intimidate countries like singapore and wonder how your government feels about being in politics for the chinese government policies because that is much different than you do. what we have to recognize is all free and open societies , it is time to have a conversation with china and explain that the activities to explain hegemonicie control over the indo pacific region and to challenge the united states, canada

has also sailed a warship within 12 nautical miles off the coast of islands in the south china sea thatrovocative and warning it could damage relations. a spokesperson for the foreign ministry saying today quote, i must stress once again that the relevant actions of the u.s. warships violated china's sovereignty and undermined peace, security and order in the relevant sea area. the chinese side is firmly opposed to this. again, when you are talking about google slash huawei, then sending a military ship into the south china sea, not trade issues, but it raises larger questions about the relationship right now between the u.s. and china, and how this all falls under the trade umbrella. neil: blake burman at the white house. we have been keeping track of what china has been saying, or probably more to the point, not saying to sort of get things back on track. for one thing, china is not saying it's moving to get talks resumed any time soon, that it reports it's in no rush to renew the talks. it's also indicated right now that the u.s. is using bullying behavior and that they will not resp

the pentagon reported today that they continue militarization in the south china sea by placing antiship cruise missiles on the island spy ship near hawaii. plus, hypersonic cruise michelle that could challenge u.s. naval dominance in the western pacific. >> i think he is watching a different movie. i think that statement is about as out of touch as i have seen. >> i don't know what world senator biden has been living i in, but reality is calling him and he is not answering. >> not just republican senators. bernie sanders tweeted "it's wrong to present that china isn't one of our major economic competitors." >> sanders is not alone, number of other 2020 dems hitting hard on china, hoping the message of economic warfare resonates with primary voters as well as national security issues resonating in the general election. >> shannon: leland vittert, thank you so much. former vice president joe biden says china is not competing with us. talk to our fox news contributor and former cia station chief friend, dan hoffman. he is here to weigh in paired good to have you tonight. >> good to be here. >> shannon: what is your ini

pentagon report today said they continued militarization of the south china sea by placing long range surface-to-air missiles on the islandoyed a spy ship near hawaii, plus just a hypersonic cruise missile that could challenge the western pacific. >> is watching a different movie. that statement is as out of touch as i have seen. i don't know what world joe biden has been living in, but reality is calling him and he is not answering. >> reporter: not just republican. bernie sanders tweeted it is wrong to pretend china isn't one of our major economic competitors. sanders and telephone. another of democrats hitting our on-site hoping the message of economic warfare resonates with democratic primary voters and national security issue might resonate in the general election. shannon: thank you very much. former vice president joe biden says china is not competing with us. we talk to dan hoffman who is here to weigh in. what is your initial reaction to that. you may be looking at this from the assessment of national security threat. >> i was surprised to hear that. there is rare bipartisan consensus among elected officials in t

south china sea. in 2015 there was a pledge from your general secretary that china would not militarize man-made islands there. a lot to people of the military say you violated that pledge by fortifying islands with missiles and jamming equipment. why and how do you respond to that and you see that as provocative? >> the situation in the south china sea is a territorial dispute between china and some of our neighbors and over the last few years there is good progress between us and some of our other countries. we are working together to maintain stability there. we are working together for the code of conduct. things are moving in the right direction. the situation is cooling down and the only source of instability in the region is intensifying american military activities, the so-called freedom operation in the region. this is the only source of instability. >> bret: the very last thing. the north koreans, we have seen distinctions and invasions of the sanctions as north korea seems to be getting more aggressive with the rhetoric and actions. at the same time there was a piece of the washington times a

south china sea? >> that will take direct confrontation. they have built those islandsns that you said. no one has touched them. so they have -- you can't fly over those things. they controlled it, the area and sea over there. i don't see them giving that up without a confrontation, which is a serious effort on mostly our part. >> neil: in prior administrations dealing with the chinese, they cheat, they lie. they don't do what they say they're going to do colonel, if you were president, which is a scary thought, how would you make sure they do? >> it's an intel thing. we have to be willing to pick up and leave the table. and look, trump is the only president that could have gone to north korea and the only guy that can confront. nixon was the only one to china. this administration has been willing to put a stick in the eye hoff the chinese. none of them have in the past. i would not bet against us in this. >> neil: i would not bet against your sentiment. david hunt as well, this is outside the u.s. trade representative's office. i don't need sneedy lines from you saying

sea he has retired from commercial fishing. then 97 year old is the custodian of long held customs which for killing the snakes they called reza believed to be the spirits of a south korean island. i don't really say he has never seen a cobra attack in no one except once when he was attacked himself. a lower. day i must have angered the snake when i carried it out of the house so that i could sleep at a crawl back in but picked it up again and threw it out and then went to bed early i will notice donna surely it crawled back in. this time and picked it up and it turned its head in bit me. the snake shouldn't be harassed even if it means sharing a bed with some of. you. for that reason the snakes move freely in and out of the wood in aus is. nearly all. of that is the name of the island spirits and its traditions are rather strict no one cuts down a tree for any reason. buds to shouldn't be killed and their eggs must not be eaten. but the custom of the prohibits women on the island is the one that is toughest for the fishermen. say don't do no point i will be good to finish your work and go home and see your family every day you know how your child spent the night to know what t

the building of those man made islands in the south china sea, in violation of international law.ing military for at thisifications, including surface-to-air missile systems. their one road one belt, shows the plans for next 30 years. we show reactions in the next 24 hour cycles. that is what the chinese depend on, we don't have wherewithal or stamina to go head-to-head with them overall for the long haul. neil: this is economic and military issue for you than one or the other? >> yeah. i think it is hand in hand. anyone will tell you there are four elements to nation's power, diplomatic, information, military, and economic. what china has done is leverage themselves implanting themselves in the world economy. they have used that to grow themselves is militarily. if you look at china's newest fighter jet, it has close resemblance to the f-35 system here in the united united statef america. when we talk about the forced transfer of technology, intellectual property theft, it has very real and has national security implications. neil: spiking of national security implications, we be

warship sails near disputed islands in south china sea, look it seem congressman that talks have collapsedment on how to properly enforce trade lace the reason is because china is not used to complying with trade laws with anybody. they cheat they dump steal property, and now we've got an agreement that president trump and ambassador lighthizer are trying to get negotiated treatment on would be about enforceable i hope we get there china seeing they need america's economy more than we need theirs hopefully we get both to agree it would be better for all ush of us meant somebody has to stand up to china, and i am glad that president trump finally is by the way, our allies all are or an the world are glad this confrontation is happening, because they want to see china comply with rules everybody else has to apply by. maria: yeah there are rules of the road, and chinese are going to have to convince the world, not just united states, that, you know, they are technology is safe to use like huaw likeh telecom we know state owned how much pain do you think u.s. administration is willing to take

are going to be watching the coral sea very carefully a new tropical system could be developing and making its way towards the west well for the north in the south island of new zealand we're going to sing some very stormy weather with that storm system that did hit australia it is making its way towards the south island right now bring some very gusty winds thunderstorms could be a problem over the next few days so here we go on sunday rain all the way from auckland down towards christ church and the winds are going to be damaging at least from sunday through monday morning by the time we get to monday afternoon things are going to look much better across much of the region with auckland at about 17 degrees and good weather across much of japan over the next few days temperatures then to the mid twenty's here for tokyo at 23 osaka a little bit warmer a few at $28.00 and seoul we're going to be seeing a nice day but rain in your forecast as we go towards monday. subzero temperatures stream altitudes. this is where the hard part because of the extraordinary journey from polish to touch if you start braved the ordinary joining us or you were too high out

fine an issue but they are putting military bases across the world, they are putting islands in the south china sea putting military bases there. give us the threat from your standpoint. >> i think it's important that we keep an eye on them and i appreciate the trade negotiations and what i understand that they were pretty far along and china reneged. the investments china is doing throughout the world and having difficult financing agreement so that countries default and china is taking over more things is very concerning, also having sending people here into our universities. we've had intelligence on that type of information about how they're actually i guess spying is the right word on u.s. citizens, those types of things, this is a national security and it's been going on in my understanding for quite some time. >> intellectual property. maria: also ip theft which has been going on decades and they have reneged on a promise to put it codify it into law, theft of intellectual property is against the law. they refuse to do that. this is ongoing face to face issue. we are in a period of uncertain

i watched him say that there's been no military buildup in the south china sea on any of the islands. do -- i watched him say that the internment camps are jobs training for the uighurs i watched him say that every thing they decided on that the united states had pulled out three or four times and taken back what they had -- i mean, it was -- >> yeah. >> maybe baghdad bob is too strong, but that was the feeling i got listening to some -- and if that's what we're hearing from the negotiators i don't see it going anywhere ever. >> yeah. the chinese are building up in the south china sea. >> that's a fact. >> the authoritarian nation taking place to the uighurs, some million people held in camps, these are not community colleges these are authoritarian reeducation institutions and we have seen what's going on in the technology space those are facts. i can't account for why the chinese ambassador said -- >> criticized you in saying things >> i'm sure they have. >> they'll be mad i said baghdad bob. >> what's important, joe, not that -- not name calling it's important to be honest, get the

there of 21 degrees well for the south island of new zealand plenty of rain plenty of clouds and winds over the next few days that's a system coming across the tasman sea will bring a lot of that activity over the next few days we don't really see a break probably till we get to mid to end week over here towards auckland you'll also see winds coming out of the north not too bad in terms of temperature but on tuesday that does mean you're going to see more rain as well and then here across japan we've seen a lot of heat across the region where temperatures are into the low thirty's so here on tokyo on monday we're going to be seeing still $33.00 degrees there but the rain is going to be pushing through and that will drop the temperature with rain in the forecast on tuesday with a temperate there of 29 degrees. capturing a moment in time for the snapshots of other lives. other stories. providing a glimpse into someone else's work. inspiring documentaries from impassioned filmmakers i'm at the front lines i feel like i know it i have the data to prove a. witness on al-jazeera. welcome back top story this hour according to estimates in the european parliam

areas such as east africa or building facilities in pakistan and the military islands they fortified in the south china seas on. the other side, iran, got to make sure they are not able to continue to fund all the islamic terrorism groups you see out there, hezbollah, hamas, iranian guard revolutionary corps. you see both of those countries engaged in our hemisphere in venezuela. connell: yeah, that's true. venezuela is part of it. people wonder whether mexico also is intertwined with all of these stories because does it make the china trade deal more difficult. i don't know. let me follow up on iran for a moment. i think phil does bring up another interesting point in his oil market report, said there are going to be waivers or not, playing into kind of a larger narrative around iran, is everybody on the same page within the administration about what to do, say for example john bolton more hawkish than president trump or his other advisers. what do you make of the strategy being implemented now and is it a clear-cut one? do they know what they're doing? >> well, i think the most important thing is that we

they're setting up islands within the south china sea and putting military bases on there. to compete with the u.s. military. that's the largest worry in terms of china's behavior. >> this administration is heavily influenced by a book, by a guest i think you've had, michael pillsbury, the 100 year war. the thesis is in 1939 they adopted a 100 year strategy to take us down. they're two-thirds of the way into it. they're running about 20 years ahead of schedule. >> where do you think mr. buffet stands on the trade issue? >> people forget about buffet. he's more trump than trump when it comes to trade. for about 20 years he's been scared and public about his concern over our trade deficits in general. he proposed 20 years ago a very radical strategy that would force our -- would be a guardrail that would force us into a balanced trait. he thinks we're hollowing out our future because we're trading little pieces of paper for nike sneakers. i shouldn't say brands, sorry. but for sneakers. some day those pieces of paper come back and buy productive assets so our children and gra

you see what we've seen in the south china sea, where, you know, they will continually say president xi committed to president obama that he would not militarize these islands and has clearly gone ahead and done so. their weapons development, weapons systems development, is absolutely targeted at denying us our ability to protect our forces. when we look back at the issue the defense budget, for example, it becomes very, very important that we modernize. very important that we are focused on what's happening in space. and i think from an arms control perspective what we saw the administration announce what the president is pushing for with respect to new star, we're not going to go down the path where we limit ourselveses in treaties where the russians cheat as they have been doing in the i.n.f. treaty and the chinese aren't party to them. those treaties have to reflect the realities of today's world which means the chinese have to e limited as well. mr. mead: how well do you think the administration is handling the situation in the middle east. ms. cheney: which one? mr. mead: there's a range. we have to look at the whole thing. ms. cheney: i think to star

bring xi jinping more into this conversation i think he is someone who has overreached on islands in the south china seafe i think he's overreached on the trade issue. and i think we're talking too much about trump and not enough, because it's so nontransparent, about decision-making there. but something happened there people there yanked him back, and it had to do with internal chinese politics >> but president xi is still going to be all powerful until 2020 trump faces a challenge before president xi does. >> no question, and that's why i don't know whether he's going to be able to sustain this at the speed, scope, and scale that's going to be needed, wilfred, to actually make a differentiated difference in the relationship between us i just don't know that trump's going to be able to do that. >> bannon pointed out -- or someone did -- that this negotiator that is a big reformer, mr. he, that we don't know his future -- >> he got demoted basically on the last trip. >> >> you cannot only be demoted, you can end up doing hard time, theoretically. >> he can be executed. >> there's actually a very small c

. >> they have islands in the south china sea that they built for interruption of international trade are pushing the limits on super computing to hack us. they have space weapons that they have tested. bottom line is let's hope we can get a good deal and i think trump is doing the right thing but let's not be naive. brian: absolutely. i was stunned by his statement and see if any of his 21 competitors bring it up on the democratic side. robert, great job. democrats have a new way to smear bill barr this chicken. diamond and silk next. ♪ why can't we be friends ♪ why can't we be friends ♪ man: i'm 53. but in my mind i'm still 35. that's why i take osteo bi-flex, to keep me moving the way i was made to. it nourishes and strengthens my joints for the long term. osteo bi-flex. find our coupon in sunday's paper. osteo bi-flex. i was ready to make my mark, but i didn't know how. i was working the same job for a few years. i had a degree and some experience but no career. i opened the careerbuilder app and found an awesome job at a company i love. it even built a resume for me with skills i

south china sea. you're still doing exercises. are things still getting worse, is there a temporary lull? how worried are you about that? >> mike, you mentioned the fall of 2016, we did not militarize the islands. we're seeing run ways, routine deployment, aviation capabilities, so forth. clearly they walked away from that commitment. so the extent they have not been increased in recent months, i assume that is because the islands have been developed to a point where they provide the military capability they were required to have. i don't know they would read much into no change in the last few months. stabilize in terms of activity, perhaps achieved operational capability from a chinese perspective. it is probably worth repeating how i view the south china sea. the south china sea is, in my judgment, not a pile of rocks as we have talked about before. what is at stake where there are territorial claims is the rule of law. the international laws and norms and standards, that is when we ignore actions that are not in compliance with the national rules, norms, and standards. we just set a new standard and as you and i have spoken about before, the new standard was lower than it was the day befor
