(Phnom Penh News) Philippine Foreign Minister Manlo will reiterate the guidance principle of the Philippines with the 2016 Hague International Arbitral Tribunal's decision in the 2016 Hague International Arbitral Tribunal.
The Asian Foreign Minister's Meeting will be held in Phnom Penh in the Cambodian capital from Tuesday to Saturday (August 2nd to 6th).In addition to the Asianan countries, foreign ministers from the United States, China, Japan, Russia, and Australia will also participate in related meetings.
According to the Philippine GMA TV station, the Philippine Foreign Minister Assistant Minister Estiri, who is responsible for Asia's Delica Affairs, said at a press conference on July 28: "Minister Manlo will advocate the 1982 UNCLOS Convention (UNCLOS)The ruling of the arbitral tribunal is the two pillars of our actions and policies in the South China Sea. "
Mainland China, Taiwan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Brunei are all part or all sovereignty in the South China Sea. The Philippines chose to seek to seek territorial disputes between it and China.In 2016, the Hague arbitral tribunal judged that China had no legal basis for the sovereignty of the South China Sea with the "nine sections".Beijing insists on not participating and accepting this lawsuit.
On the sixth anniversary of the southern China Sea Case on July 12, Manlo had said that the results of the arbitration could not deny or refute, which was the ultimate ruling.The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin responded the next day that the results of the arbitration seriously violated international law including Unclos, which was illegal and invalid.
