On July 1, the Philippine Coast Guard resupplied the 97-meter-class patrol ship MRRV-970 "Theresa Magbanua" stranded at Sembin Reef, and the Philippine Coast Guard mobilized three 44-meter-class patrol ships to carry out the transfer of personnel and materials through assistance. Judging from the actions of the Philippines, it is obvious that they want to stay at Xianbin Reef for a long time, and for this reason it is already a big bet that China will not come hard, in fact, the Philippine Coast Guard mobilized three patrol ships to replenish the Xianbin Reef under the nose of the Chinese Coast Guard and the Chinese Coast Guard, for which the Philippine Coast Guard spokesman has been very arrogant, calling the action of the four patrol ships on Xianbin Reef an extraordinary scene.
The Philippine MRRV-970 "Theresa Magbanua" is a large long-range patrol ship, is the main ship of the Philippine Coast Guard, judging from the actions of the Philippines, is to regain the face lost on June 17, when the Philippine Navy used 6 ships, none of them were able to break through the Chinese coast guard, so as to achieve the illegal supply of the "Sierra Madre" landing ship at Ren'ai Shoal, and on July 1, the Philippine Coast Guard has made a huge breakthrough, For this reason, the Philippine Coast Guard and the Philippine media immediately hyped up, and the Philippine Coast Guard has released the relevant supply video, which is equivalent to "pulling back a game" for the Philippines.
In fact, on June 29, the Philippine Coast Guard rescued a fishing boat near Ren'ai Jiao, when the engine room of the Philippine fishing boat exploded. However, after the Philippine Coast Guard patrol ship returned to the Philippines, the Philippines changed its tone, claiming that the Chinese coast guard had obstructed the Philippine rescue operation, and the Philippine Coast Guard also commended those who participated in the rescue.
It is clear that the Philippines has realized the transfer of materials and personnel under the premise that the Chinese coast guard allowed Philippine ships to enter Xianbin Reef, so it is not a victory for the Philippines, but the Chinese coast guard did not stop the Philippines' supply mission out of humanitarian concern. Just like the supply at Ren'ai Jiao, as long as the Philippines proposes to supply daily necessities, the Chinese coast guard will not stop it, but if the Philippines supplies illegal construction materials, the Chinese coast guard will naturally not let go, and will use strong means to stop the Philippines' illegal acts.
China is dealing with the issue of provocations by the Philippines from the perspective of the overall situation in the South China Sea, not because China is afraid of things, but because it wants to maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea to the greatest extent, and the Philippines is trying to support the "Indo-Pacific strategy" of the United States through provocations in the South China Sea. China is actively promoting the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea, and the Philippines is trying to undermine the signing and implementation of the Code through provocations. China has been setting an example on the South China Sea issue, China is a responsible major country, and for this reason it has given the Philippines the greatest goodwill.
