Philippines Counters Chinese "Bullying" | Firstpost Spotlight | N18G

Описание: The Philippines on December 30 said it challenged the presence of a Chinese research vessel operating inside its Exclusive Economic Zone, escalating tensions in the West Philippine Sea. The Philippine Coast Guard ordered a maritime surveillance flight after spotting the advanced deep-sea research ship, which Manila says failed to respond to repeated radio challenges and did not secure prior consent required under Philippine and international law. Beijing dismissed the accusations, insisting the waters remain open to international passage. The incident follows an earlier dispute over a Chinese naval destroyer’s interaction with Filipino fishermen, which Manila says occurred inside its Exclusive Economic Zone.
