Marcos summoned China’s ambassador on Tuesday to express his “serious concern” over China’s actions in the South China Sea and the foreign ministry called on Beijing to stop its vessels’ “aggressive activities.”
The incident, which followed Marcos’ state visit to China last month, has stoked long-running diplomatic tension between the Philippines and China over the latter’s expansive claims in the South China Sea, which an international tribunal in The Hague invalidated in 2016.
“These acts of aggression by China are disturbing and disappointing,” Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Teresita Daza said in a statement announcing the filing of the diplomatic protest, among the hundreds Manila has lodged against China.In response, Ambassador Huang Xilian said he discussed with Marcos how to implement the consensus reached by the two countries on managing maritime differences during the Philippine leader’s China visit.
The sea is rich in oil, gas and fish. About $3 trillion in ship-borne trade passes through it annually. In a tweet on Tuesday, Japanese Ambassador to the Philippines Koshikawa Kazuhiko also expressed serious concerns about “dangerous behavior’s” against Philippine vessels.
