1/ US position of 4 yrs ago was neutral. Since then, China's been peacefully negotiating with concerned countries and agreements are about to be reached. The #USA stirring of old embers of dispute is certainly a disservice to peace and stability of the #Southsea

2/ USA is not a signing party to the UNCLOS (UN Convention on the Law of the Sea). It's now coercing China to be bound by UNCLOS, a treaty it doesn't recognize itself.
3/ Arbitration predicates on both parties agreeing to solve the dispute by the private tribunal paid by both parties. The arbitration was unilaterally demanded and paid by the Philippines under the military threat of the US marine. It has no legal validity.
