"We urge the Philippines to immediately stop its illegal actions that infringe on China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, immediately stop any unilateral actions that may lead to the expansion of disputes in the South China Sea and complicate the situation, and immediately stop its wrong actions that deliberately undermine the overall situation of China-Philippines relations and the peace and stability of the South China Sea."
Statement from US abt it:
I don't think China really gives a f**k what the Philippine law says. China just hosted a dual carrier exercise in the Philippine's front yard, who's going to challenge China in the SCS? The Pinoy navy? The UN? The "World Police"? Pinoy laws aren't worth discussing.
