Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, April 4) Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana is not backing out of the Philippine government s stance calling for the removal of Chinese vessels at Julian Felipe Reef, saying China should stop its aggressive actions that disturb peace in the region.
In another strongly-worded statement issued Sunday, Lorenzana blasted the Chinese Embassy s response justifying the presence of Chinese maritime militias in the disputed territory.
Lorenza claimed the Chinese Embassy in Manila showed an utter disregard of international law despite an arbitral tribunal favoring the Philippines regarding China’s claims to virtually all of the South China Sea.
