SINGAPORE, Aug 24 ― US Vice President Kamala Harris today accused China of coercion and intimidation to back unlawful claims in the South China Sea, in her most pointed comments on China on a visit to Southeast Asia, a region she said was critical to US security.

The US administration has called rivalry with China “the biggest geopolitical test” of the century and Southeast Asia has seen a series of high-profile visits by top administration officials, including Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin. China rejected the ruling and has stood by its claim to most of the waters within a so-called Nine Dash Line on its maps, parts of which Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam also claim.

On board the USS Tulsa, a US combat ship at the Changi Naval base in Singapore yesterday, Harris told US sailors “a big part of the history of the 21st century will be written about this very region” and their work defending it was pivotal.They discussed the importance of upholding a rules-based international order and freedom of navigation in the Indo-Pacific region, expanded cybersecurity cooperation and efforts to shore up critical supply chains between their countries.
