> Right now China doesn’t really have an outlet to the wider pacific in case of war. They are blocked by Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Russia and the whole of Southeast Asia. If they could control the whole SCS, or retake Taiwan, then their submarines would get out without assured detection. It's much more important than submarines. Their trade, and access to resources such as oil, goes through that territory controlled by others (the US especially). |
