New from Leonardo Bernard & Lowell Bautista in FACTS, Second Thomas Shoal & the Use of ‘Lawfare’ in the South China Sea. "The strategic use of lawfare by the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia highlights international law’s role in maintaining stability and peace in contested maritime regions. Through legal mechanisms, these nations can challenge power imbalances and seek peaceful resolutions to disputes. Lawfare enables smaller States to mobilise international support, exert diplomatic pressure, and uphold a rules-based order.” You can read the article at https://lnkd.in/gNqS-sA5 This analysis draws from the latest Blue Security Maritime Affairs Issue 'The use of ‘Lawfare’ in the South China Sea Disputes: Views from the Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia' by Leonardo Bernard, Lowell Bautista, Jane Chan and Nguyen Thi Lan Anh.

As the threat of an even more violent clash between Philippine vessels and Chinese ships looms over the July 30 summit, the four ministers have a remarkable opportunity ahead of them. By doubling down on its military assistance to its treaty ally, using diplomatic leverage to rally other partners into supporting it in the face of hostility, and serving as a driver and coordinator of intelligent investments in clean energy deployment and infrastructure improvements, the United States can fill the gaps in the Philippines’ approach to the South China Sea and serve as the guarantor of its grand strategy that espouses forceful deterrence to protect its sovereign claims. https://lnkd.in/gv_2uC_n
