The United States and the Philippines have nearly 300 military contacts and drills every year, which can be said to be in-depth exchanges. On average, 80% of the two armies are conducting exchanges and training at various levels throughout the year, and the problem is quite serious. Because the US military is deeply involved in the defense strategy of Philippines , it will also threaten the security and stability of our southern waters, and can even pose a tactical threat to Fujian coastal targets. After all, the northern Philippines archipelago is only more than 600 kilometers away from Xiamen, Fujian, and is completely within the range of air-launched anti-ship missiles.

Around National Day, the strategic alliance between the United States and the Philippines was further upgraded. US Defense Secretary Austin held bilateral talks with Philippine Senior Deputy Minister of Defense Fosterino in Hawaii and issued the US-Philippines Strategic Alliance Declaration.
Picture interpretation: At the meeting on the upgrading of the strategic alliance between the United States and the Philippines, the United States and the Philippines will strengthen the commitment to the joint defense treaty, strengthen the maritime security cooperation between the United States and the Philippines, improve the interoperability capabilities of the US and the Philippines combat forces, and strengthen the information sharing capabilities of the US and the Philippines militaries

Watchtower think tank believes that the main content of the declaration is: Strengthen the commitment to the joint defense treaty, strengthen the maritime security cooperation between the United States and the Philippines, improve the interoperability capabilities of the US and the Philippines combat forces, and strengthen the information sharing capabilities of the US and the Philippines militaries . The US Indo-Pacific Command and the Philippine Armed Forces promise to implement the spirit of the document, accelerate the pace of contact between the two armies, and increase the number and scale of annual bilateral exercises.
It is not difficult to see from the US-Philippines strategic declaration that the content of this talk highlights common defense, which is an affirmation of the US-Philippines Joint Defense Treaty signed by the US-Philippines in 1951. The treaty stipulates that when any party in the contract encounters an armed attack, both sides must negotiate and take action to jointly respond to the danger.
Picture interpretation: The amphibious combat drill site of the United States and Philippines, the US and Philippines have more than 300 military drills and exchanges every year. The problem is more serious than we imagined. Once a conflict occurs, the Philippines will assist the US military in fighting, not only creating a crisis in the southern waters, but also supporting the US military to strike targets in the strait from the direction of the Papua Islands

The US and the Philippines once again proposed joint defense at this time, which may be to lay the foundation for the US military to enter the Philippines next. Even if the US military does not enter, it means that the US and the Philippines need to strengthen the foundation of joint combat and strengthen military activities in the southern waters and north of the Babuyan Islands.
US Defense Secretary Austin believes that the US military and the Philippine Armed Forces will establish a more credible common defense situation and implement an enhanced defense cooperation agreement. The agreement requires that the US military can stay in the Philippines for a long time, but cannot establish a permanent military base . Philippine military personnel can use the US military's ships and aircraft. This agreement is quite threatening to our southern waters and the Taiwan Strait. The Philippine Navy uses the fingers of the US military to infect the waters around us. The US military can take advantage of the Philippines' geographical advantages to launch a tactical strike against targets around the Taiwan Strait from the direction of the Babuyan Islands.
Picture interpretation: The Philippines purchased Brahmos anti-ship missile with a range of 290 kilometers, which is specifically used to attack littoral targets. The imaginary enemy is self-evident
At the same time, the United States and the Philippines have nearly 300 military contacts and drills every year, which can be said to be in-depth exchanges. On average, 80% of the two armies are conducting exchanges and training at various levels throughout the year, and the problem is quite serious.
Because the US military is deeply involved in the Philippines' defense strategy, it will also threaten the security and stability of relevant sea areas. The Philippines has also purchased 100 shore-based Brahmos cruise missiles, specifically used to strike maritime targets, with a range of 290 kilometers. The US military can take this opportunity to create crises in waters such as Nansha . This article was exclusively published by @博博取网站, and any form of reproduction is not allowed.
