China's aircraft carrier 'Shandong' has been deployed near the Philippines.

The deployment is in response to Manila's strategic actions in the West Philippine Sea dispute.

China is using the aircraft carrier as a show of strength amid rising tensions.

Beijing is concerned about Manila's alliances with democratic countries.

Recent aggressive actions by the Chinese navy include intrusive patrols and amphibious drills.

These actions aim to assert Beijing's sovereignty claims in the South China Sea.

The presence of the 'Shandong' serves as a clear warning amidst ongoing military activities by China in the region.
