according to reports, a philippine coast guard ship has been stranded in the chinese xianbin reef lagoon recently. when the philippines sent ships to deliver supplies to it several times not long ago, the chinese coast guard ship intercepted it according to law. a spokesman for the philippine armed forces said that china's actions endangered the personal safety of filipinos and violated international law. the us said that the us-philippines mutual defense treaty applies to armed attacks on philippine troops, public ships and aircraft anywhere in the south china sea.

in this regard, wu qian pointed out that china has indisputable sovereignty over the nansha islands, including xianbin reef, and its adjacent waters. since april this year, the philippine coast guard ship 9701 has entered the xianbin reef lagoon without authorization and illegally stayed there for a long time, seriously infringing on china's sovereignty, seriously violating international law and the provisions of the declaration on the conduct of parties in the south china sea, and seriously endangering regional peace and stability. china firmly opposes and has made solemn representations on many occasions. the philippines' attempt to achieve a long-term presence in xianbin reef has opened the "pandora's box" that worsens the situation in the south china sea, and has been strongly opposed by regional countries.
