11 June 2020
In this paper we discuss:
- The geo-strategic importance of South-China Sea (SCS);
- Why SCS is key for global trade;
- Why, given the geo-strategic rivalry, it will be hard for the US and China to reach a comprehensive trade deal;
- How the US was playing "the art of the deal" while China was playing "the art of War"; and
- How the Philippines might end up being the equivalent of a "partial pin" in the chess game between US and China.
