The South China Sea has become a cause of contention between world powers. This rise in tension has placed the ASEAN countries—in particular the requesting states in terms of maritime claims (Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam) —in a delicate position. In such a situation, constant oscillation between Beijing and Washington in the custom of hedging is probably no longer the most viable option. Also, the growing presence of powers other than the United States and China should be seen as a real alternative for the ASEAN countries, not only for both the stability and prosperity of this region, but also vis-à-vis its search for centrality in the face of the large number of security, maritime and environmental problems. “Friends, allied but not aligned”: this diplomatic adage alone sums up a position which is in line with the “inclusive” diplomacy promoted by both the EU as the ASEAN, and is propitious to partnerships.
