Test of truth on whether Russia, beholden to PRC due to the war in Ukraine, is a mere second-rate power by succumbing to Beijing's pressure and abandon its foremost partner in Southeast Asia. This comes right after Xi-Putin summit. https://t.co/XJ81drvLCv

@GordianKnotRay @DzirhanDefence @DrIanHall @CollinSLKoh @ngahpham @DevjyotGhoshal @vietnamenglish @VietnamNewsVNS @duandang Thanks for keeping us updated! A minor clarification. The South China Sea Chronicle Initiative (@TheSCSCI) is an independent research group. It does not reflect the official position of Vietnam. Vietnam has not released any official statements regarding the incident.

"#Chinese coast guard ships have sailed directly into energy exploration blocks operated or owned by #Russian firms in #Vietnam’s EEZ about 40 times since January 2022, according to vessel-tracking data from Vietnamese research organisation @TheSCSCI" https://t.co/nrYSOUpCnZ

Meanwhile, #China's research/survey vessel Da Yang Hao has been operating on a vast area of roughly 20,000 km2 through the Spratly islands since June 30th. #SouthChinaSea

Happy South China Sea Award Anniversary! On this day 6 years ago, the Abitral Tribunal tossed out the 9 dash line and any claim to historic rights in the SCS, establishing this as the extent of disputes around the Spratlys. (Page 231 of On Dangerous Ground, out this month!)

Delighted to see our work on China's research/survey activities in the South China Sea in 2021 has been cited in an excellent report by @AMTI_org and @Greg_Poling.

[Greg Poling @GregPoling]

We've mapped all publicly-available Chinese survey activity in the SCS over the last 2 years. Here are the retaliatory and illegal seabed surveys that made the news. https://t.co/HIf0fUNeQP (1/2)

@le2huong @AsiaMTI @SoutheastAsiaDC @GregPoling Thank you! Looking forward to your talk at Sciences Po-CERI this coming Thursday!

[South China Sea Chronicle Initiative @TheSCSCI]

@GregPoling Thanks for introducing our work in your excellent report. We agree that the data set is not complete; there were activities that couldn't be tracked via AIS. Can we translate your report into Vietnamese for Vietnamese readers?

[South China Sea News @SCS_news]

They do not represent Vietnamese people. Our colleague found evidence that someone funds the pro-Putin group. A poll by Vietnam-based @TheSCSCI showed that most of the participants wanted their government to vote in favour of the resolution against the war https://t.co/evlU2Ci2Pj
