Almost every country in the world has territorial disputes.

Again a whataboutism, the existence of other countries doing shitty things is no excuse for China doing the same.

So what? Again, what aggression? (Third time asking)

I gave you the full list, I don't think you are arguing in good faith so I don't see the point. Though if you have time to waste I am willing to be entertained by your take on the construction of artificial islands and military outposts in the Paracel Islands, surely China isn't the agressor and definitely not in violation of international maritime law despite what those pesky tribunals say.
