Through the National Maritime Council (NMC), the Philippines called on China to stop their unlawful actions to maintain regional peace and stability.
“The Philippine government strongly condemns the China Coast Guard's latest aggressive actions against Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources vessels conducting legitimate maritime patrols and fisheries support operations near Bajo de Masinloc (Panatag Shoal) in the West Philippine Sea,” the NMC said in a statement.
