- China is expanding its naval bases on the tropical island of Hainan in the South China Sea. Two of Beijing’s most important naval facilities, Yulia and Longpo, have undergone dramatic expansion to accommodate a growing fleet of vessels and to provide a home for China’s new sea-borne nuclear deterrent.
WSJ spoke to defense analysts who say the upgrades point to Beijing’s preparations for a possible conflict over Taiwan.

U.S. lawmakers meet with new Taiwan president amid tensions with China: on.wsj.com/450R97i
Why doesn't US have the 🏀🏀 to officially recognize Taiwan as an independent country? Why does US, a North American country, have so many military bases in Asia?
When will Western colonialism of Asia be over? 😂

Next they'll tell me the US will have a naval base in Hawaii or Guam or something.
BREAK NEWS: CHINESE SPAM BOTS AND LITTLE DOGS SPAM ON CZcams EVEN THOUGH IT IS BANNED IN THEIR COUNTRY.
China’s military isn’t defensive though. It’s offensive, they’re building up to invade Taiwan.
Next up, we'll hear about China's military bases in all the countries surrounding the US. Wait? They don't have any? It's the US that has bases in Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Guam? Wait, so which country is the heavily militarised, aggressive nation threatening world peace?
Which nation has it written into their constitution that they are not beholden to ICJ decisions and are responsible for the only nuclear attack in history? Has to be the evil China, right?
LOL, U.S. massive expansion : not news
American has 700 bases around the world and they are concerned over a base outside of china 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Inside*

its a base in China, Hainan Island is their sovereign territory as much as Hawaii is the U.S. base since it falls in their sovereign territory.
Outside? It's in Chinese territory. I just wonder why those Chinese didn't point out what the states have been doing for the last 6 years. US has built many bases cycling china, sent fighters intruding into China economic zones over thousands of times each year, and had live exercises dozens of times around china in just 8 months. US criticizes those chinese for aggression. Is that a joke?
Fun fact for Americans who don't know Hainan: Hainan is a province island WITHIN China's territory. So this video is like saying: "How dare the US expand its military bases in Nevada?!"
its the new york times, its basically a U.S. newspaper peddling more china fear-mongering narrative.
😆
a foreign adversary creates new military bases in an area that could become a battleground in the near future isnt news ? no one is saying they dont have a right to do what they want WITHIN its internationally recognized territories, try again man
😂
Classic American double standard！
they only talk about the massive expension as the title said
I don't think you can call it "Naval Expansion" unless China has hundreds of oversea military bases and conducts regular "freedom of navigation" sails in the Gulf of Mexico.
How can you not allow American double standard? You're being unfair!
So those bases are in Democratic countires that have let them be there ....as a defence to the ethno-nationlist Chinese !
Its Democracy, liberty and tolerance against Racist Fascists !
6:22 They expanded, words are hard bro
Same old west biasness, nothing new..
Yes you can. You can totally call what they've done naval expansion, mainly expanding their maritime territory. Think that's the requirement.
China can do what ever they want in Hainan Island. It belongs to china.😅😅

But sir, isn't it that china is always the one saying "cooperation or confrontation?".
America is more with mutuality with Philippines, meaning we both benefit with each other's company. While China just wants to be predator, who wants almost all parts of the sea to be their own.

No way! Imagine a country having the GALL to build defense bases to protect its country from imperialist nations- how dare they!
What nations are threatening China? Chinas relations with the world was improving and its economic conditions were going from strength to strength. In the past 10 years China has chosen a path that goes a different direction than it was travelling. Why?
China is an imperialist dictatorship that stole lands like tibet & xianjing & wants to steal more territory.. it still has over 20 territorial disputes with all its neighbours, on land & sea: Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, Singapore, Brunei, India, Nepal, Bhutan, Laos, Mongolia, Myanmar, Tibet, Russia, Cambodia, South Korea.
China released a controversial new ten-dash line map that not only encompasses much of the South China Sea and Taiwan, but also disputed land territories with India and Russia.
ASEAN members Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines all quickly issued diplomatic protests against China’s ever-expanding claims, which they and others like japan argue are out of step with international law as defined by UNCLOS.

How can China's navy challenge the U.S. navy in the South China Sea? China's navy is not on the coast of the United States.
But at their allies footsteps…the Philippines for example have mutual defense agreements…and it was their choice to sign them as a foreign independent country (their right if you wish). So it makes a bunch of sense, especially if China attacks their fleets and territory..

How close is this island to the shores of mainland China and mainland US? Why is this a challenge to US navy on the other side of the globe?
Hainan is Chinese territory, and there is a satellite launch base on it. The United States is building a military base in Hawaii. China to build military base on Hainan Island? Is there a problem?
WSJ should report on the US naval bases around China, base by base, port by port, ship by ship.
Well said !

The US is not harassing fishermen with water cannons.
The US is not the one whose objective is to retake Taiwan.

Jeju Naval Base Korea, the Navy’s 7th Task Flotilla and part of the Submarine Force Command will be relocated there from Busan and Jinhae, South Gyeongsang Province, respectively. An estimated 3,000 naval personnel and their families will be stationed at the base. The local people oppose it.
For the past decade it was a known fact that China was reinforcing its naval forces by integrating military, naval & submarine base on Hainan island as it has strategic value… why is that even surprising? China 🇨🇳 has 1 billion citizens & ensuring their territorial waters remain as such for the future is normal for every sovereign nation.. 🙄

Where's the serious concern for the safety and independence of the Taiwanese people? How can you say that the US is causing tension when Taiwan just voted in a pro independent president once again?

The United States is the world's greatest threat to peace.
Hmm 🤔 Underground submarine base. 🤓 let that sink in.
Analyze this:
Six centuries ago during the Ming dynasty, China was a economic and military superpower.
Under the leadership of the legendary admiral Zheng He, an armada of giant Chinese ships travelled all over Asia.
They visited and traded with Arabia, Africa and India - but never colonized them.
It's not in the Chinese DNA to dominate other nations.
History is a witness.
na US and UK goverments officer will never think this way. the bigger gun you have the bullyer you will be .thats what they always do, they cant understand otherway.
That was because of adoption of Confucianism and the role in had in dominating both Imperial Chinese government and society. Basically it said in a nut shell, the outside world had nothing to ofter the middle Kingdom, China, and thus they turned their backs to it and looks in ward.
This lead to the stagnation of Chinese society and development, causing them to fall from being the most technologically and socially advanced nation in the world at the time to one that was easily taken over by and dominated by the various western powers along with Japane a few centuries later.
The Chinese people never have forgotten this period and call it the “Century of Humiliation” and have vowed never to let it happen again.

honestly China needs to start getting into the hollywood propaganda game like these......create award winning documentaries about america's past wars and war crimes, i heard there were over 16 wars since wwii.....just imagine how much juicy material there is....
Ironically, China is not at all interested in doing that. They've seen what jingoism does to America, how it's inherently counter-revolutionary and reactionary, and obviously has no desire to lower the quality of its own citizenry's intellectual and moral framework. They see what and how America has built itself into the global hegemon that it is, and it wants to see that order scattered. It wants a multipolar world, not a unipolar world where they just replace America. China, ironically, is set and determined to do and be BETTER than America. Not that that's hard, given America is really the only global bad guy (with apartheid, genocidal regimes like Israeli zionism being a literal extension of American Empire, and functionally comparable to an important American state, like NY or Cali or Texas, not a boring state nobody cares about like Iowa or Ohio).

More vessels, yes. But what kind of vessels? Having more patrol boats to bloat-up your Navy is not impressive.
US vessels are manned by BLM and LGBT and DEI.
The USA is concerned China maybe using the Cambodian Ream port as a naval base. Is the USA ever concerned that other nations maybe concerned that the USA has over 300 military bases surrounding China? Just a thought.
Has the US bases ever been used to attack China? No. Is it a threat to China? No

This island shown here is the island of “Hainan”a huge opening is seen through satellite imaging, a massive tunnel is inside where submarines are docked or tied.
Does Japan pay for the US military bases in Okinawa and other Japanese cities?
Yes. They pay for food and fuel of all soldiers. Germany does the same. A US soldier driving around a gas guzzler (Mustang) in Germany just pulls up at a gas station and gives him a piece of paper. and gets free gas. Saw it with my own eyes. German and Japan are both US colonies, still.
Why does China expand its military capability? Ask the US for its huge military presence around China's coast and its hostile patrol close to China's major cities every day.
Clearly China has no choice but to expand its border defense as the US becomes more and more hostile due to China’s rapidly expanding technical prowess. China is collecting its loans to the US again in response to growing US hostility . US is only hurting itself in its ill conceived attempt to restrict China’s progress. I think the US has an irrational fear of people different from its European roots. Logically the US should cooperate with China for mutual benefit.

Consequences of CHINA Abandoning Resistance
Geopolitical Vulnerability: China would face increased external pressures and potential loss of control over key regions.
Economic Disruption: Inability to secure the South China Sea could jeopardize China's economic stability and global supply chains.
Diminished Influence: Reduced presence would allow other powers, particularly the US, to dominate the region.
Comparative Analysis: Afghanistan, Palestine, Iraq
Afghanistan: Prolonged conflict and foreign interventions have led to instability and economic hardship.
Palestine: Ongoing conflict has caused economic and humanitarian crises.
Iraq: Foreign invasions have resulted in long-term instability and challenges in nation-building.
Deep-Seated Reasons for US Pressure on China
Global Dominance: The US aims to maintain its hegemonic status, viewing China's rise as a threat.
Economic Competition: China’s growth challenges US economic interests and influence in global markets.
Strategic Alliances: Supporting regional allies helps the US maintain a balance of power against China.
Conclusion
China’s military enhancements and strategic expansions are crucial for protecting its sovereignty, economic interests, and regional influence. Abandoning these efforts could lead to vulnerabilities similar to those faced by Afghanistan, Palestine, and Iraq. The US actions are driven by a desire to maintain global dominance and economic supremacy, underscoring the complex dynamics of international power struggles.
The thing about China "having more ships" is also misleading. Yes, the Chinese Navy has more ships, but many "ships" are missile boats that can’t travel far. The US Navy has far more destroyers, frigates, cruisers, submarines, and most crucially aircraft carriers. When it comes to tonnage, the US Navy is leading by a significant number.
We know that US has been practising ramming tactics 😁😂🤣 More ships with modern precision, superior range missiles are definitely advantageous in modern naval warfare
Do you know that China's ability to build warships is more than 200 times that of the United States? And you go to see that most of the American warships are antique.😂
@@user-jc8cy5tf2k That is very much true. But China cannot compete with the US, not even in Asia-Pacific, until China builds at least six Type-003 carriers fully equipped with J-35 fighter jets.

In recent times, there has been a noticeable trend of American interventionism, where the pursuit of war and economic interests seem to intertwine. However, China is taking a different approach by extending support to developing nations, aiming to reshape this paradigm. Instead of profiting from conflicts between nations, China is investing in global development.

China’s mobile land-based hypersonic missile forces cover out past the second island chain including S. Korea, Japan, Okinawa, Guam, Philippines and everything in between. They also reach out to the Eastern Indian Ocean. This DOES NOT INCLUDE their Air and surface/sub Naval fleet which also provides additional offensive power; hypersonic missile capabilities, etc.
China’s long-range land-based nuke/conventional ballistic and sub ballistic hypersonic missiles and space based nuclear glide vehicles can cover the entire U.S. and nearly the ENTIRE WORLD fired from China and off the coast.
Australia, Hawaii, Singapore, New Caledonia, and a staging base on an Indian Island in the Indian Ocean would also be important targets. In fact ALL U.S. supply chain staging areas are within range.
This means that EVERY surface ship, and EVERY land military installation is at threat of a hypersonic missile attack and not just one, but wave after wave after wave. They CANNOT be stopped.

China can produce MORE THAN the entire annual U.S. inventory of cruise missiles in ONE WEEK!!!
And China’s manufacturing capabilities mean it will not run out of any wartime supply, ship, missile, or plane.
Prepare for America’s worst military defeat in its history and one of the worst in recorded world history.
…and This is The Way…
That’s a nice story. Will make a great fiction book one time.
I’ve got a title for you: The alternative status of the U.K. armed forces.

@@Statueshop297UK’s military is a joke.
Will the US also pledge not to use nuclear first?
um, they did....
@@littlehippo5004 when, in which universer?
@@littlehippo5004 Sorry mate, but that is incorrect.
The US reserves the right to use nuclear weapons, either tactical or strategic nuclear weapons if attacked or believe that an attack is imminent by another nuclear power, even if said or attack or percieved threat of attack is of conventional or nuclear in nature..
That is to say, if the US believes say Russia is about to attack a NATO member soon, the US reserves the right to drop a nuke or two on Russia as a warning. For what its worth, they have agree not to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear powers thought, I will leave you to decided what size of a grain of salt you want to have with that.
Only two nuclear powers have signed and agreed to the No First Strike policy, and those are the PRC and oddly enough, India. Two nuclear power nations that have at best what could be called "frosty" relations with each other.
I was in Hainan at the 5 star hotel chain Mandarin Oriental November last year and saw a lot of coastguard ships close to shore. its strange that a hotel is so close to military base.
Thanks, Wall Street Journal.
Where is the invasion there when we all knew that Taiwan is a province of Mainland China?
Their writ doesn’t run there. And it has never belonged to China.
US also has 2 military bases at China’s doorstep: Guam and Okinawa
More than that kid..😊
When i was a kid i thought it was Hong Kong😭😭
Please show the secret agreement on Ream Naval Base in Cambodia.
Didn't know this. Thanks.
USA so WEAK
So weak we have bases around the world ?
What are the dozens of American bases in East Asia aim at and for? Isn't that concerning?
Lots of China bots.
Those bases have been there since the end of WW2. Has China been attacked from them? No. So no threat to China at all.
Those countries actually want the bases in there countries. Example Philippines. All the nations near China are sick of china threatening them, ignoring international law of sea and borders etc etc.
@@Statueshop297 have you seen protests in Japan, Korea and Philippines? Bribing a few officials or coercing countries does not mean the countries truly want them there. Has China attacked anyone in the last few decades ? How about the US? How many has it bom//bed?
@@NCM-xy8owThere are protests every year.
@@qinxu-kw1wc that's what I was saying. You probably didn't get the meaning of my post.
good analysis. yes more of this please
Tunnel is good but what happen when they bomb the entrance of the tunnel is there a Emergency Exit on that tunnel
Nepal and gorkhas stans with china always.
The Nepalese communist government gives away land to the CCP on an almost daily basis
Great
More American millatary bases built in the Philippines,China is going to checkmate those bases by building parallel millatary island bases.
Philippines holds a key position in this grand strategy, USA has the plans to use obedient Filipinos as human shields to stop Chinese bullets. I hope Filipinos would do their duty well.
woah another wumao comment im shocked
@@ItsJoKeZ CIA bots are working overtime
I dont see philippines going into chinese waters attacking their fish boats
@@touchme211 If China was serious, they would have actually taken it over.
Reality is, all of these countries are just acting tough. Did you know Philippines stationed marines on a SUNK ship? Yes, not real land but a sunk ship. China responded by trying to block supply ships from reaching that boat, but so far no one has shot each other.
Not defending any side. China is certainly the bigger bully here, but the reality is often skewed due to the way media words things. Go look at the media bias between Russia/Ukraine vs Israel/Palestine. When Israeli dies, it's "slaughter" but when Palestinian die it's "collateral damage".
If I cannot beat you, I bad-mouth you. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very interesting. Thank You
WSJ now please make a video about nearly 800 military bases ( that we know about) in more than 70 countries.
What about the American bases literally on every continent even maybe on moon lol
The one the US green barrettes are on 3 miles off the mainland coast?
US govt hates when crimea got taken by its original owner but owns island 5000km away from its borders, it illegally took
Since the Vietnam War Hainin has been a military bee hive.
But isn't it normal to build your own naval bases to protect your coastline ?! Unless if it's used to hurt other countries
Thank you.
Thank you so much for the 100x... My own video tutorial is now available
Scam
Wow China has a base in Cambodia; in no time they'll be matching America's over 800 overseas military installations 🙄
would have been great if the ROC did not lose the island in the 50s
China is a force for good in the World.
guarding imperialism ain't easy for US, always freaking out whenever a country which is not under its arms does something militarily
So according to you, imperialism is when a sovereign country like Taiwan is able to make its own decisions without being bullied by China
@@zachb1706why don’t you use the full name of the republic of China?
@@honedreade4979 Why don't the list the number of years, months, days.. heck even hours that the CCP has held control over Taiwan?
Taiwan belongs to fujian!
@@zachb1706 That's a terrible analogy considering Taiwan is not recognized by US as an independent country.
Don't get me wrong, I love Taiwan and hopes it keeps its culture (which is rooted in real Chinese culture, not the communist culture today).
But you're also extremely naive to think that countries don't try to influence each other. What do you think US does behind closed doors to its "allies"? Do you think everyone wanted to join US on Iraq and other invasions?
And no, I'm not trying to claim any country is better than another. I'm just educated enough to understand difference between what politicians say vs the realities like geopolitics.
I live in South East Asia, we knew this ever since China decided to show its 9 dash line.
Military/Naval Overseas bases:
USA 759
UK 60
Saudi Arabia 21
Russia 12
France 5
India 3
Turkey 3
UAE 3
Australia 2
China 2
Who do you think is a warmonger?
