Manila says Beijing raising pressure to cede claims in South China Sea
The Straits Times
|November 13, 2024
China is stepping up pressure on the Philippines to concede its sovereign rights in the South China Sea, Manila's Defence Secretary Gilberto Teodoro said on Nov 12 after meeting his Australian counterpart in Canberra.
-
The fifth such meeting since August 2023 reflects growing security ties between the countries, which have both voiced concerns about Chinese activity in areas of the busy waterway claimed by the Philippines and other South-east Asian nations.
"What we see is an increasing demand by Beijing for us to concede our sovereign rights in the area," Mr Teodoro said after meeting Australian counterpart Richard Marles, adding that the Philippines was a "victim of Chinese aggression".
The two nations signed a strategic partnership in September 2023 before holding their first joint sea and air patrols in the South China Sea months later. In 2024, the Philippines also joined war games in Australia for the first time.
