China's claims are absud, even extending to waters bordering the Philippines. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=spratly+islands&ia=web&iaxm=maps&strict_bbox=0
Taiwan claims those waters as well...
Most people don't understand that both People's Republic of China (“China”) and Republic of China (“Taiwan”) claim the same borders and territory and pretend “Taiwan” is being opressed.
I am sure if the ROC defeated PRC in the civil war the issues of Tibet, the strait and the South China Sea would be just given to China because China would be a US ally and NATO member along side being a permanent UN security seat member
I didn't know China was located in the Atlantic.
Correct. They'd be a Major non-NATO ally:

On a close relationship like Japan and Republic of Korea
But other than that, my point still stands.
