Mai has it correct. This is political staging in the South China sea. America has been upping their military presence in the area and staging practice invasions. China and Russia are both worried about America's ambitions and they have every right to be. If America invades Iran they will be right next to Russia and be able to surround China. No country is really pursuing imperialistic ambitions anymore except America. China in Africa is not political hegemony imo.
