Decade-long farce: Who's fueling tensions in the South China Sea?

Editor's Note: Ten years after the so-called "South China Sea Arbitration Award" case, CGTN presents a special series examining China's position on the South China Sea from four perspectives. Drawing on historical evidence and insights from Chinese and international experts, the series seeks to highlight that, rather than resolving disputes, the so-called arbitration has become a poisoned legacy – fueling confrontation, distorting the application of international law, and undermining peace and stability in the region.
