Philippines Once Again Playing Tricks! ASEAN Summit Accuses the US President!
On Sunday, October 26, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. acted委屈 at the ASEAN Summit, accusing ASEAN leaders and the US President of the "Scarborough Shoal" being designated as a nature reserve, trying to gain sympathy and support.
"The actions of some actors in designating 'Scarborough Shoal' as a nature reserve obviously not only infringes on the sovereignty of the Philippines, but also infringes on the traditional fishing rights of our people guaranteed by international law, which are protected by the 1982 UNCLOS and confirmed by the 2016 arbitration ruling and other domestic laws."
Although President Marcos Jr. did not directly name any party, it is well known that China approved the establishment of the Huangyan Island National Nature Reserve in September, and the Philippines has long coveted this historically controlled sea area under our control.
Due to the large number of items on the agenda of this ASEAN Summit, the US president and other ASEAN leaders have not yet responded to President Marcos Jr.'s statement.
