I mean, these people (the CCP regime) created their own island to stake claims on a ridiculous 90% of the South China Sea, and only just this month had a violent confrontation where they rammed another country's vessel, threatened everyone with blades, robbed their guns and destroyed their equipment.
Good on Norway to try to prevent similarly unacceptable behaviour happening in the arctic sea.
