After three decades of
accumulation and strengthening of economic, financial and military forces, China is
adopting expansionary policies in
the region of South-Eastern Asia-Pacific
with the ambition to take over the entire continent of Asia, and
then use Asia as
a springboard to pursue
the dream of world
hegemony.
The expansionist policies of the Chinese government are being
implemented in various forms: using
exports as a lever to earn foreign currency, and
using that currency amount available,
China has penetrated the global financial markets by expanding investments or even appropriating
the financial structures and the economic productive installations in many industrialized countries
in the world, from Europe to America,
from Asia to Africa, from the East to the
West, with the aim to control,
or at least influence, the economic and financial
world in a
favorable manner to China .
In addition, in recent
decades, China has significantly increased investments in defense, with the aim to
renew and modernize its army
in all sectors: land, sea, sky ... and even in the world of cyberspace.
Especially from
a military point of view, the
Chinese military forces are intensifying
the activities of provocation, aggression and illegal
occupation of territorial waters and airspace of several
countries in the region of South-Eastern Asia-Pacific, for
example, the invasion of the Scarborough
reef in the Philippines (April/2012), or defining an “air defense identification zone” (ADIZ) over the Senkaku Islands in Japan (November/2013), the invasion of the
Paracel islands (1974) and
parts of Spratly islands
(1988) of Vietnam, and more recently, since
the beginning of May 2014, China has blatantly and illegally
placed the offshore
drilling platform “Haiyang Shiyou 981” in Vietnam’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ), thus ignoring all rules
of international law.
It’s easy to understand that all these activities of provocation, aggression and illegal occupation
of the Beijing government are meant to
affirm the desire to forcibly occupy the
entire maritime area of
South-Eastern Asia-Pacific defined
as the operation of “The ten-dotted U-shape line”
covering an area of territorial
waters declared sovereign of China that stretches
from the coast of southern China to the maritime zones of Malaysia and Indonesia.
All these actions show that China
is pursuing in the area of South-Eastern Asia has not only seriously violated the sovereignty, sovereign rights and jurisdiction of the countries in the area, but has also seriously compromised peace,
stability and security in the region,
in evident violation international
rights, in particular of the “United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea” issued in 1982 (UNCLOS)
and of the "Declaration onConduct of Parties in the South China Sea" (DOC) signed between China and ASEAN in 2002, thus increasing the risk of an armed conflict.
Throughout human history, there have been
many atrocious wars, full of human suffering and destruction, and in the end, we realized that wars have
not brought any benefit to our
countries, nor to other countries,
let alone the world.
The war has never
been and never will be the
solution to any conflict.
The Vietnamese and
Filippino peoples are peace-loving
people, just as the vast majority of the Chinese people probably are. Many
countries and organizations in the world have condemned the aggressions and illegal actions of China, even
many Chinese people have expressed
their opposition to the acts of the Chinese government. all three countries
must unite and oppose any conflict, aggression
or attack that
could potentially blow up an unfair war, and do
everything possible to establish stability and security in the region.
Together with the Italian
people, Vietnamese and Filipino people wish to launch an appeal :
- to denounce all activities of provocation, aggression and violation of territorial integrity of the Chinese government to the countries in the region.
- to ask the Chinese government to put an immediate end to all activities of provocation, aggression and violation and to respect the international laws , the “United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982” (UNCLOS), and carefully apply the “Declaration on Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea” (DOC) signed in 2002.
- to ask the Chinese government to stop immediately all construction activities on the islands illegally occupied and to compensate the damages caused to Vietnam and the Philippines.
- to ask the Chinese Government to take all the moderation and to avoid actions that could undermine peace and stability in the region; and to settle disputes by peaceful means, without using or threatening to use force.
