1 June 2015 - South China Sea

I know how to solve the South China Sea problem: The U.S. should buy off Haiti’s claim to Navassa Island, an uninhabited dot administered by the U.S. but near Haiti, which Haiti has some plausible historical claim to. Noting the precedent, China would take over the South China Sea, not forcibly with ships and airstrips, but peacefully with yuan diplomacy. Risk of war averted, problem solved!
