“…Although frequently associated with the dispute, the United States officially does not have an explicit claim on the matter. For the authorities in Washington DC, Chinese expansion in the region is not problematic because of an evident "land grab"; rather, their main concern evolves around the implications of such activities on the international normative order of the freedom of navigation that the United States has been promoting and enforcing as a global power (Lee & Lee, 2017;Nguyen, 2016;Raine, 2013).…”
