00:00President Bongbong Marcos is adamant that the Philippines will not send a Navy warship

00:07despite the new harassments of China.

00:10He said that on the anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea,

00:15which is one of the foundations of the Philippines in the unification of territory and sovereignty in the West Philippine Sea.

00:21Ivan Mayrena was in touch.

00:23Last week, new incidents of aggressive action were reported by China

00:31inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.

00:34From the approach of the Chinese helicopter to the Filipino fishermen in Rosul Reef or Iroquois.

00:41Dangerous fishing, boating and water cannon pass to the ships of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources or BFAR.

00:49And last but not least, the new incident of laser to the ships of BFAR.

00:53According to the Philippine Coast Guard,

00:56previously, the ships of China were only used for the Coast Guard or Militia Vessels in harassment.

01:01Now, it's Chinese Navy warships.

01:03And it's up to the President if he will face the ships of the Philippine Navy.

01:12The President's answer, despite the harassment,

01:15the Philippines will not send a Navy warship to the West Philippine Sea.

01:19We are not at war. We don't need Navy warships.

01:22All we are doing is resupplying our fishermen, protecting our territorial rights.

01:28Again, it will be provocative and will be seen as an escalation.

01:34We don't do that. The Philippines does not escalate tensions.

01:38Quite the opposite. The Philippines always tries to bring down the level of tension.

01:44Just a week ago, the National Task Force of the West Philippine Sea said

01:48that the Philippine Navy may also deploy the warships of the Philippines

01:52to accompany the resupply missions of BFAR and PCG to the Philippine fishermen.

01:57But the President said,

01:59nothing will change in the discarding of the country from the West Philippine Sea.

02:02And the country will never be a part of the escalation of tensions in the region.

02:07The President's statement coincides with the 42nd anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea,

02:12which is considered to be the law of the sea,

02:15far from violating rights and avoiding tensions between countries.

02:20This is also one of the foundations of the Philippines in its territorial and sovereignty in the West Philippine Sea.

02:26As it upholds its lawful claim to its maritime entitlements,

02:30the Philippines has continued to engage coastal neighbors

02:33through discussions on the delimitation of the Exclusive Economic Zone,

02:37the Continental Shelf,

02:39and the Extended Continental Shelf measured from lawfully drawn baselines

02:43where these maritime zones may overlap.

02:47For GMA Integrated News, I'm Ivan Mejrini for 24 Hours.
