Australia’s defence scientists are working on a range of new weapons to combat what Defence Minister Richard Marles calls Beijing’s ‘grey warfare.’
‘The grave abuse and disrespect to our system of laws must stop,’ Mr. Marcos said.
‘Both sides continue to recognize the need to de-escalate the situation in the South China Sea and manage differences,’ Philippine foreign affairs agency said.
Washington condemned the Chinese regime’s ‘escalatory and irresponsible actions.’
A mutual defense treaty between the U.S. and the Philippines requires both nations to support each other if either country is attacked.
The incident is the latest development in a series of confrontations between the two nations in the region.
China’s actions are in violation of Philippine laws and amount to “serious breaches of diplomatic protocols and conventions,” a Filipino official said.
Right across the Indo-Pacific region, Beijing is trying to ‘gain territorial space, unilaterally through force,’ according to Admiral John Aquilino.
