00:00 The tensions between China and the Philippines have escalated again as Chinese state media
00:06 has accused the Philippines of trespassing South China Sea territories, spreading misinformation
00:12 and collaborating with external forces to disrupt peace.
00:16 A Chinese newspaper, the People's Daily, which is also a Communist Party's mouthpiece, has
00:21 criticized the Philippines for relying on the US to support and provoke China, labeling
00:27 it as an "extremely dangerous behavior" and damaging regional stability.
00:31 Amidst these heightened accusations and run-ins in the South China Sea, including an alleged
00:35 ship collision involving the Philippines Armed Forces' Chief of Staff, both nations have
00:40 traded blames.
00:41 For the unaware, China claims significant portions of the South China Sea contested
00:45 by the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan, Vietnam and Indonesia.
00:50 Despite a 2016 international tribunal ruling that invalidated China's claim on the sea,
00:56 Beijing has rejected that ruling.
00:58 Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has also issued a stern warning, cautioning any sort
01:02 of miscalculation in the disputed area and promising "resolute response" from China.
01:07 He has urged a dialogue to address the escalating tensions.
01:11 Coming back to the Philippines and China relations, now this deteriorating relation is coinciding
01:15 with Manila's effort to strengthen military ties with Japan and the United States, its
01:20 former colonial power and its long-standing defense ally.
01:23 China has expressed displeasure at the US for sending a navy ship near the disputed
01:28 waters, where China and the Philippines have experienced many confrontations.
01:33 The People's Daily also criticizes the US for allegedly using the defense treaty with
01:37 Manila to threaten China and supporting Philippine actions that violate China's sovereignty,
01:42 branding such actions as "extremely irresponsible" and "dangerous".
01:47 The commentary deteriorated China's discontent with the situation, often expressing the newspaper
01:52 views on foreign policy matters.
01:54 However, despite these accusations, the Philippines' Foreign Ministry and its South China Sea Task
01:58 Force has remained silent in matter to the report.
02:02 The tensions, fuelled by territorial disputes, alleged provocations and military manoeuvres,
02:07 have strained China's-Philippine relations, raising concerns about potential escalation
02:10 in the region's already fragile geopolitical landscape.
