Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning on Friday, May 23, justified China Coast Guard's actions against a Philippine civilian public vessel on West Philippine Sea, stating that the Philippines should "immediately stop its infringements and provocations."
This, after an incident where a China Coast Guard (CCG) ship fired a water cannon and sideswiped a Philippine Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) vessel in West Philippine Sea on Pag-asa Cay 2 (Sandy Cay), where it was conducting a marine scientific research initiative.
