The illegal behavior of the Philippines has once again attracted attention! It is understood that in the past 70 days, the Philippine Coast Guard ship 9701 has been stranded at Xianbin Reef, and the Philippine ship has "committed crimes against the wind" in an attempt to replicate the practice of Ren'ai Jiao again.

On July 1, it was shocking that the Philippine Coast Guard's capital ship USS Theresa Magbanua (MRRV-9701), which had been imported from Japan, remained stranded in the Sembin Reef lagoon and remained stationary. This illegal act has been going on for more than 70 days, which raises questions about the intentions and motives of the Philippine side.
It is worth noting that the Philippine Coast Guard has also frequently sent a number of ships to Sembin Reef in an attempt to replenish the stranded 9701 ship. This apparent provocation is reminiscent of the Philippines' similar aggression against China's Diaoyu Islands. Does it mean that the Philippines intends to provoke another dispute over the South China Sea issue?
It cannot be ignored that the China Coast Guard has responded to this incident and has followed up and supervised the whole process. China will undoubtedly resolutely safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests, and will never tolerate any country's illegal occupation of the South China Sea.
The illegal detention of Sembin Reef and the Philippines' repeated practices have aroused widespread concern in the international community. All sides are wondering what exactly the Philippines is trying to do. Have they forgotten the wars and bloodshed of history?
As a regional power, China will continue to resolve disputes in the South China Sea through peaceful and legal means. We call on the Philippines to respect international law and regional stability, and to stop any act that undermines peace and stability in the South China Sea.
The Philippines' illegal presence has once again highlighted the complexity and sensitivity of the South China Sea dispute. The international community should work together to promote the proper settlement of the South China Sea issue and maintain regional peace and stability through dialogue and cooperation.
