US calls on China to stop its 'provocative and unsafe conduct' in the disputed South China Sea, after a Chinese coast guard ship cut off a Philippine patrol vessel, causing a near-collision
A Chinese coast guard vessel sails past a Chinese vessel near the Philippine-occupied Thitu island in the disputed South China Sea on April 21.
"We call upon Beijing to desist from its provocative and unsaf e conduct," he said, adding that any attack on Philippine armed forces would trigger a US response. AFP news agency was one of several media outlets that witnessed the incident after journalists were invited to join two Philippine Coast Guard boats on a six-day patrol of the waters, visiting a dozen islands and reefs.
The Malapascua's commanding officer said the Chinese ship came within 45 meters of his boat and only his quick actions avoided the steel-hulled vessels crashing into each other. The near-miss came just a day after Marcos hosted Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang for talks in Manila aimed at defusing tensions in the waterway.
