China's New SCS Map Sparks Outrage

China issued an updated version of its standard map last week, which extended its territorial claims over the South China Sea, much to the displeasure of other claimant states. What are the implications of this for geopolitical tensions in the region? We speak to Veerle Nouwens from the Institute of International and Strategic Studies for a better understanding of the dynamics at play.
