Cuộc họp ASEAN - Trung Quốc thảo luận về bộ Quy tắc ứng xử trên Biển Đông đã vấp phải một trở ngại duy nhất: Trung Quốc.
Trong các nước ASEAN, Thái Lan có mối quan hệ đặc biệt với tất cả các cường quốc lớn trên thế giới. Nếu khắc phục được các vấn đề nội bộ, Thái Lan có thể tận dụng vị thế đối ngoại của mình làm trung gian hòa giải giúp ngăn chặn tình hình căng thẳng và các cuộc xung đột ở Đông Bắc Á.
Sau những thất vọng hồi tháng 7 năm nay, khi lần đầu tiên AMM sau 45 lần họp đã không ra nổi một Tuyên bố chung, nhưng dư luận vẫn mong chờ một sự thay đổi trong kỳ họp thượng đỉnh ASEAN sắp tới sẽ diễn ra tại Phnompenh – thủ đô Campuchia. Một trong những nội dung trọng tâm mà thế giới cùng khu vực mong đợi ở Hội nghị thượng đỉnh ASEAN lần này là việc liệu ASEAN có thông qua được bản COC trên biển Đông hay không?
