Get real! Do you really think those smaller claimants would really enforce those? Militarize them, enforce their own ADIZ, deploy naval fleets and militias to block, lock targets, threaten, fire lasers, and push away local fishermen and other ships? Only one far, far away has done those repeatedly.

So all countries are greedy, China happens to be the one with more military strength to back up its greedy plan.

The Hague Ruling already proved it all could be done legitimate and peacefully, which nations should abide. That there is a lawful way via international means away from pressure from any bigger claimant, without bloodshed.
