In recent years, the international situation has been turbulent, and many parts of the world are in an active state of war.
Almost every national leader can influence some international changes to a greater or lesser extent after his death, and the same is true of the recent death of Viet Nam's supreme leader Nguyen Phu Trong due to illness.
In fact, when Nguyen Phu Trong was not seriously ill, Viet Nam had already submitted a plan to the United Nations for the delimitation of the continental shelf in the South China Sea.
Viet Nam and China, not under Nguyen Phu Trong's leadership, do not fit together, perhaps they want to prove their status and strength in the Asia-Pacific region.
But this operation has made Viet Nam not only violate China's territorial sovereignty in the South China Sea, but also want to build itself into a second Philippines, which the mainland can allow?
Suddenly strained Sino-Vietnamese relations
Originally, the relationship between China and Viet Nam many years ago was still good, because the diplomatic relations between Viet Nam and China were fairly well established.
Viet Nam's supreme leader Nguyen Phu Trong has visited China many times, carried out many cooperation matters with China, and also enhanced many feelings, and Sino-Vietnamese relations have been quite harmonious during this period.
However, when Nguyen Phu Trong became seriously ill, some small changes quietly took place in Viet Nam's political arena, and some people in Viet Nam began to point the finger at China, no longer mentioning Sino-Vietnamese harmony, but instead thinking of undermining Sino-Vietnamese relations.
Especially when it comes to the issue of sovereignty in the South China Sea, which is something that the Chinese must protect, Viet Nam always wants to pluck this very sensitive string.
As a result, some people are worried about whether the political situation in Viet Nam will change significantly, and what kind of relationship between China and Vietnam will end up in the future.
On 17 July, the Viet Nam government did the same as the Philippine side on 14 June, submitting to the relevant United Nations agencies a proposal for the delimitation of the continental shelf in the South China Sea drawn up by the Viet Nam government.
It would be nice if this plan only mentioned the territory of other countries, but in this plan, it really touches on the South China Sea issue.
Naturally, the mainland wants to make severe criticisms and protests against this, and such voices have been raised more than once, but now they have appeared again, and this is obviously a provocation to the mainland and, all the more, an attempt to undermine friendly relations between the mainland and other countries.
On July 19, Nguyen Phu Trong died of illness at the age of 80. The news will eventually shake the world pattern, and many people around the world are watching Viet Nam's political scene to see what kind of thoughts and actions they will take next.
However, the result was naturally very disappointing for the mainland, and Viet Nam was considering territorial sovereignty in the South China Sea for the mainland.
The relevant documents issued by Viet Nam are not only inconsistent with the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, but also violate the United Nations Convention on the Sea and some international laws and regulations.
China naturally once again firmly opposes Viet Nam's move this time, and on China's position in the South China Sea, China is willing to negotiate but will never allow any country to touch any inch of mainland territory.
As a result, the mainland government demanded that Viet Nam retract its erroneous thinking and hoped that the other side would not cause another dispute with the mainland on issues such as the South China Sea.
At the same time, this time, the mainland not only made a clear opinion in words, but also showed the thunderous means of our side's opposition in action to inform Viet Nam that it would make the mistake of encroaching on the mainland's territory again.
Thunderous means of counterattack
Previously, the mainland and Cambodia had reached a cooperation agreement that the mainland would help Cambodia build the Dechongfu South Canal.
You know, this canal has a huge impact on the economies of Viet Nam and Cambodia, and now the mainland intervention will inevitably change the situation.
Viet Nam attaches great importance to the issue of access to the Mekong estuary, because it will strengthen their economic control over Cambodia, and if Cambodian goods can bring Viet Nam hundreds of billions of dollars in economic benefits, it will be a considerable amount.
But now Viet Nam has taken matters into its own hands and put the mainland's territorial issue in the South China Sea on the strings, becoming a bow and arrow to sting China. Then, the mainland's help to Cambodia to build the canal is equivalent to returning a heavy blow to the other side.
In the future, almost all of the locations for the establishment of the Dechongfu South Canal are located in Cambodia, and once this canal is built, it is equivalent to directly giving Cambodia a Mekong River estuary.
For their economic exchanges, Cambodia will no longer be affected by Viet Nam, and naturally indirectly evaporate Viet Nam's 100 billion-level income out of thin air, which is completely self-inflicted for Viet Nam, no wonder others.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet publicly stated not long ago that the construction of the Dechong Funan Canal will officially start in August this year. This has become an irreversible fact.
What's more, Viet Nam itself is still suffering from a power shortage, even if the Viet Nam government calls on everyone to save electricity, but when it comes to the peak of electricity consumption in summer, it is inevitable that the city will be plunged into darkness due to insufficient electricity.
It is also interesting to say that this country is obviously short of power supply in its own country, and it still needs to buy it from the mainland, but it turns around and criticizes the South China Sea issue on the mainland, what do you think?
You know, the mainland treats Viet Nam very well, if according to Viet Nam's own power generation costs, 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity is a lot of money. And if you buy it from the mainland, 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity only costs 4 cents 7, so low electricity costs, can't it awaken Viet Nam's feelings for China?
In fact, China has helped Viet Nam's economic lifeline a lot, and just solving the problem of Viet Nam's electricity shortage has had a great impact on Viet Nam.
Although Viet Nam is still short of electricity, with the mainland's supply in this area, Viet Nam has not only saved a lot of money, but also has strong support for its manufacturing industry, so that Viet Nam will not enter the "night" early due to lack of electricity.
Therefore, when China faces the issue of Viet Nam's intention to be involved in the strait, our attitude towards this matter is resolute and firm, and safeguarding national sovereignty is an inevitable thing. The mainland can verbally warn the other side in words, and it will inevitably make the other side pay a certain price in actual actions.
China is an ancient civilization with thousands of years of wisdom, and naturally it also has its own diplomatic wisdom, and we will build our own alliance with our own fraternity and tolerance, and maintain close ties with other diplomatic countries.
The so-called: there are friends from afar, and they are happy. China is willing to open its arms and accept sincere friends from all over the world, but it will never give in to countries with malicious intentions.
