Another Needless US/China Clash In South China Sea

The US claims its purpose is to keep shipping lanes open, while China arguably benefits as much as anyone from trade going in and out of the region. Similar to US military operations off the Baltic coast, this latest clash in the South China Sea resulted in military jets being dispatched to send a message.

Can the countries in the region not better solve these disputes without US involvement?
