No but they could use the land for airfields and such.
If it came to war over the China Sea the USA would have a dilemma in deciding to bomb Chinese airfields in other countries that are not actually supplying troops and such.
I would build mine right next to civilian cities in other Asian countries and watch the USA figure that one out.
Bomb other countries civilian population to destroy the airfields or not? 🤔

I remember that.

@Duchess64 - Phil a Dork's determined to show that he's a military idiot.
Says the idiot that thinks the UK bought 20 F-35's as a **Stop Gap** measure.
Oh, yeah, Duchess64 is without a doubt, a regular Napoleon. 🤔 🤔 🙄 🙄
