Recently,The situation in the South China SeaTensions were renewed, and the Philippines became a party to the dispute. According to ChinaSpeakersWang Wenbin's response at a regular press conferencePhilippines**MarcosHe made a series of China-related remarks about China, accusing China of posing a challenge to its Asian neighbors. The Philippines has even strengthened its cooperation with Japan and the United States, trying to counter China by forming alliances with these countries. Such an act is not only a betrayal of one of China's greatest enemies in history, but also a threat to regional peace and stability.
ChinaSpeakersWang Wenbin pointed out that the Philippines' behavior on the South China Sea issue is the reason for the tension between the two countries. The Philippines has continuously sent official vessels into China's territorial waters in an attempt to reinforce and fix the illegal beachingSecond Thomas Reef, which poses a serious threat to China's territorial sovereignty. The Philippines has not only relied on external forces to put pressure on China, but has also repeatedly provoked China's bottom line. China has always been committed to resolving the South China Sea issue through dialogue and consultation, and firmly defends its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
China's statement is essentially an ultimatum to the Philippines. In recent days, there have been reports that China has sent engineering vessels into the South China Sea, allegedly to conduct sea state surveys. In addition, China has assembled 150 large and medium-sized shipsFishing boats, deployed in a triangular shape around the scrap illegally occupied by the Philippines**. In this regard, some foreign countries** and the Philippine Coast Guard have also reported relevant situations. Although these messages have not yet been confirmed by China**, there is reason to believe that these actions will signal China's imminent tugboat or ship dismantling operation to punish the Philippines for beaching and shipbreaking. The United States, Japan, and other countries have long recognized ChinaFishing boatsIn the roles of the South China Sea, the East China Sea and the Taiwan Strait, they have been cooperating with China's coast guardNavyMaintain maritime sovereignty. The problem of the Philippines sitting, shipwrecked, can no longer be delayed, otherwise it may drag more countries down. The conspiracy to continue the internationalization of the South China Sea issue must be prevented. Therefore, there is an urgent need for China to act.
If the United States and Japan interveneThe situation in the South China Sea, they will face ChinaNavyand the resistance of the Chinese people. China has absolute superiority in the South China Sea, the Philippine Sea, the Taiwan Strait, and the East China Sea, where it has deployed defenses such as Dongfeng Express land-based anti-ship missiles, air-launched missiles, and torpedoes**. It is believed that China has the ability to confront the intervening U.S. and Japanese fleets and take action to solve the problem of the Philippines illegally sitting on the beach and scrapping**. China will resolutely defend its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, and maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.
China's stance and actions on the South China Sea issue are all aimed at defending its core interests. In the face of challenges and provocations from the Philippines, China is unwavering in its determination to safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
