In several tweets over the subsequent days, Locsin apologized to Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi and said he was provoked by the latest grossest territorial violation. Meanwhile, Duterte s spokesman Harry Roque reportedly said the Philippine president has reminded officials that profanity has no place in diplomacy.
Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Wang Wenbin responded to Locsin s outburst in a Tuesday statement, saying that facts have proven time and time again that megaphone diplomacy can only undermine mutual trust rather than change reality.
But Beijing also has a track record of firing insults at other countries.
Such aggressive tactics by Chinese diplomats have in recent years increasingly played out on social media platforms such as Twitter, which is blocked on the mainland. Observers dubbed those tactics wolf warrior diplomacy, taking after a series of hugely popular movies where Chinese fighters defeat adversaries globally.
