“Freedom of navigation” shouldn’t mean anything to Americans in this context. The U.S. is one of the few countries in the world that isn’t a signatory to the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea.

The US signed the agreement, but Congress has not ratified the convention.

Freedom of Navigation goes back way beyond the "Law of the Sea," to at least the 15th century.
There's also the historical curiosity called the War of 1812.
Look up what caused it.
