Initiating war with Vietnam will anger South East Asian Country , especially the tension already high there with Taiwan and Philippines. |
It is absolutely not enough, in fact Vietnam's independence itself is part of the reason why China is contesting the waters to begin with and they most certainly do not have the same ideology ...
The CPV (Communist Party of Vietnam) puts it's own national interests above the CPC's (Communist Party of China) national interests so they must not have the same ideals ...
There's a reason why China exiled the Dalai Lama from Tibet because they view any form symbolic sovereignty as dangerous ... (so Vietnam has to go too in China's eyes depending on how lucrative the South China Sea's resources are)
Remember what happened to those Falun Gong cult leaders or how CPC's VERY OWN troops unleashed barrage of fire against their own CIVILIANS during the Tiananmen Square protests ?! We are talking about a nation who are willingly going to kill their own citizens if necessary and threaten a rogue province (Taiwan) with an incursion if they even dare declare independence! (the big reason why Taiwan isn't recognized by the UN is cause the PRC at the security council keeps blocking the proposition)
