00:00It is not yet considered an armed attack by the Chinese Coast Guard against the Philippine Navy in Iungin Shoal on June 17, according to the Philippine officials.
00:10However, this should not be considered a misunderstanding or an accident.
00:15And the tension is not yet rising that the Chinese Coast Guard launched a monster ship over the area.
00:21Here is my first news.
00:24Run! Run!
00:29A week after the confrontation between the Philippine Navy and the Chinese Coast Guard in Iungin Shoal,
00:34the Chinese Coast Guard 5901 was spotted near the BRP Sierra Madre,
00:39which was launched as a monster ship and one of their biggest ships.
00:43According to maritime security expert, Ray Powell,
00:46the ship was spotted next as it approached the Sabina Shoal where the BRP is stationed in Magbanua.
00:52The inflatable boats, PCG and CCG, were also spotted there.
00:57Ladies and gentlemen, this is China Sea.
01:00The Chinese Foreign Ministry urged the Philippines to stop its invasion
01:05and help China for peace in the South China Sea.
01:09The Philippines is misleading the international community.
01:14In the past, China has been seen as a professional and has been monitoring the actions of the CCG in Iungin Shoal on June 17.
01:20Even in that incident, the video shows the CCG's aiming of the gun
01:25and other similar things to the Philippine soldiers.
01:28The same goes for the smuggling, theft and the hole in the Philippine's inflatable boat.
01:35At one point, a Chinese inflatable boat was seen chasing a Philippine ship.
01:42At the time of the robbery, the two boats almost fell.
01:46The government still does not consider the armed attack under the Mutual Defense Treaty as what happened on June 17.
01:51But they also do not consider it as a misunderstanding or an accident.
01:55We are not downplaying the incident. It was an aggressive and illegal use of force.
02:01The definition of armed attack is the use of military force and excessive mass use of force to trigger collective self-defense.
02:11Even in the Article 51 of the UN Charter and in the MDT, they do not force the definition of armed attack.
02:19The President also did not approve the recommendation of the National Maritime Council to announce regular RORE missions.
02:26The President has reiterated that we will not publish schedules of any RORE.
02:33But the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that there was no help from their Chinese counterpart
02:38since the incident that happened on June 17.
02:40The peaceful means. Yes. It will not disappear.
02:43We are also doing something on the diplomatic front.
02:46We have a mechanism that has been in existence for quite a number of years.
