China: Stop US use of bases to protect 150,000 Pinoys in Taiwan READ MORE:
Chinese Ambassador Huang Xilian accused the United States of taking advantage of the situation in the Taiwan Strait to expand its military presence in the region.
While “indeed, there are differences between China and the Philippines on the South China Sea issue,” Huang noted that the two countries have maintained peaceful coexistence “for over a thousand years and will continue to be so in the future.” Romualdez added that the joint statement was not directed towards China but to all incursions that “happened in the past.”“We are hoping that our friends in China will see that as an opportunity for us to be more serious about really resolving these issues peacefully,” the ambassador told a TV interview, citing the harassment being experienced by Filipino fishermen in the country’s territorial waters at the hands of Chinese vessels.
Romualdez also said the Philippines’ defense ties with the US weremerely aimed at defending the country’s sovereignty and protecting its citizens. Foreign Affairs Secretary Enrique Manalo, meanwhile, said the Philippines and the United States are refocusing their attention on emergent concerns that will likely be on their common agenda for the future.
