South China Sea: CCTV reporter debates with American expert on the arbitration case
Published on 22 Jul 2016
Wang Guan, chief political correspondent at CCTV America, was invited to debate with Daniel Wagner, CEO of Country Risk Solutions, on the South China Sea arbitration ruling in RT’s program, Cross Talk, on Wednesday. Wang insisted that The Hague-based tribunal court “ruled on something that it has no jurisdiction to rule on based on a geopolitic side lawsuit filed by the Philippines against China.” He added that “the court ruled (on our) sovereignty in disguise of ruling on other things, which violated the spirit, if not the text, of UNCLOS.” Take a look at this heated debate.

IMHO, the CCTV reporter won hands down!
The so-called American expert doesn't know too much about the SCS situation. He keeps harping on the standard western narrative. He has no in depth understanding of UNCLOS.
