DAMPAK KEBIJAKAN LUAR NEGERI CHINA DI LAUT CHINA SELATAN TERHADAP STABILITAS POLITIK DAN KEAMANAN KAWASAN ASIA TENGGARA TAHUN 2020- 2023
Abstract
The South China Sea (SCS) dispute is one of the main issues in the political and security dynamics of Southeast Asia. China's foreign policy to strengthen its claims over the region, including through artificial island construction and increased military activities, has heightened tensions with ASEAN countries. This study aims to analyze the impact of China's foreign policy on political stability and security in Southeast Asia during the 2020-2023 period. Using a qualitative approach with a literature review method, this research examines China's various policies and the responses of ASEAN countries to China's claims and activities in the SCS. The findings indicate that China's policies have increased regional instability, marked by rising diplomatic tensions, the strengthening of ASEAN countries' military capabilities, and intensified regional security cooperation. This study highlights the need for a balance of power strategy and stronger multilateral diplomacy to de-escalate conflicts and maintain regional stability.
