    We’re discussing via writing, so if it’s anything it’s libel. But it isn’t that either - for a start nothing I’ve said is false, and neither does it damage their reputation.

    China is claiming territory that a few years ago they did not claim. They’re doing this, in part, by building artificial islands very close to the lands of other countries. The idea being they want to expand their borders 200 miles around their new islands, regardless of whose territory this encroaches.
