00:00 Well, China's military has got pretty riled up about some recent naval exercise India
00:06 and the Philippines had in the South China Sea.
00:09 Reportedly, China's military has expressed displeasure over India and the Philippines
00:13 conducting naval exercise in the disputed South China Sea, emphasizing that defense
00:17 collaboration among nations shouldn't harm the third-party interest or regional peace.
00:22 Reportedly, Chinese defense spokesperson, Senior Colonel Wu Kuan, stated that China
00:26 has noted the reports of the military activity and has stressed the importance of cooperation
00:31 without compromising third-party benefits or regional stability.
00:34 Well, China's concern arose as its Coast Guard faced off with the Philippines' Navy in the
00:40 South China Sea.
00:41 Ongoing dispute involves territorial claims contested by the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia,
00:46 Brunei and Taiwan.
00:48 Recently India's INS Karmat, an Indian vessel, engaged in maritime exercise with the Philippines'
00:53 BRP Reman Alcoraz in the South China Sea.
00:56 Wu, without specifying the country, stated that China-Philippines maritime dispute should
01:01 remain a bilateral issue without any external intervention, a direct attack possibly at
01:06 the United States.
01:07 At the beginning of the month, INS Karmat, while in the Philippines, joined the maritime
01:11 drill with South China Sea alongside BRP Reman Alcoraz, the Philippines' Navy offshore patrol
01:16 vessel.
01:17 "Retariating China's commitment to safeguard sovereignty and maritime rights," Wu refuted
01:22 the claims of Chinese Coast Guard ships using water cannons against the Philippine vessels.
01:27 This statement comes despite the fact the videos are existing on social media.
01:31 He blamed the Philippines for intruding into the contested areas and causing damage, justifying
01:35 China's enforcement actions as a lawful response to provocations.
01:40 China has strongly opposed to US criticism regarding the actions in the South China Sea
01:43 and dismissed Washington's commitment to defend the Philippines under the Mutual Defense Treaty.
01:48 Wu emphasizes China's sovereignty over the disputed areas and once again has accused
01:53 the United States and now even India for inciting the Philippines against China.
