BEIJING, March 25 (Xinhua) — The China Coast Guard (CCG) on Wednesday demanded that the Philippines immediately stop provocations, fuss-making and smear campaigns related to China's Huangyan Island in the South China Sea.
As noted by BOC official Liu Dejun, the BOC recently conducted scheduled training exercises to protect rights and maintain law and order in the waters of Huangyan Island, having issued a navigation safety notice in advance in accordance with the law.
However, during the exercise, the Philippine side assembled a large number of vessels that intruded into the Chinese exercise zone, attempting to provoke incidents, create a stir, and fraudulently attract the attention of the international community under the guise of "fishing," Liu Dejun said.
According to him, the BOC will continue to conduct operations to protect rights and maintain law and order in the waters of China's Huangyan Island in accordance with the law, resolutely defending China's territorial sovereignty, as well as maritime rights and interests.
