China Rejects Philippines’ Sovereignty Claims

The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that China strongly opposes any action taken by the Philippines that harms its sovereignty and rights in the South China Sea. This response came after the Philippine government issued an updated maritime map that includes the Natuna Chiondao Islands, which China considers to be its territory. China affirms that the Natuna Chiondao Islands, including Zhongye Dao and Mawan Dao, fall within Chinese sovereignty and are outside the scope defined by international treaties for the Philippines. China considers the Philippines' unlawful occupation of some islands and reefs within the Natuna Chiondao Islands, as well as claims of sovereignty over the Calayan Islands, a violation of its sovereignty and the United Nations Charter, asserting that these actions are illegal and invalid. China confirmed that it will take the necessary measures to defend its maritime interests and sovereignty in the region.
