Here, it is not merely the arbitration China rejects but the very content of a treaty it negotiated with its neighbors. For the ruling states, "to the extent China had historic rights to resources in the waters of the South China Sea, such rights were extinguished to the extent they were incompatible with the exclusive economic zones provided for in the Convention."
So it's not a dispute over borders at all. The argument of "historic fishing grounds", etc. that the Chinese gov't uses to justify itself to its people are themselves null and void.
I don't think the paid idiots will try to get their head around such arguments which are legally tenable. The govt treat them like mushrooms. Feed them shit and keep them in the dark.
