Defining the News
Manila, Philippines—China is the “biggest disruptor” of peace in Southeast Asia, the Philippine defence chief said Tuesday, as tensions between Manila and Beijing over disputed reefs and waters in the South China Sea escalate.
China’s claims include reefs and waters inside the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone, which extends about 370 kilometers from the country’s coastal waters. Speaking to reporters, Teodoro urged other countries to call out China’s “illegal acts” until it yields to pressure to stop its actions.“We are struggling against a more powerful adversary.”
They were forced to abandon the mission due to China’s “excessive” deployment of ships and rough sea conditions, Commodore Jay Tarriela, a spokesman for Manila’s coast guard, told AFP on Monday.
