POSITION STATEMENT
Bagong Alyansang Makabayan Rome Desk condemns in the
strongest words China’s intrusions in Panatag, and
Kaingin shoals which lies within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)
in West Philippine Sea, and assert the
Philippine sovereignity over the said area respected. The incursions of the
Chinese military and fishing vessels
in the said areas are in direct violation of the United Nations Convention on
Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the
sovereignity of the Philippines.
We also demand that China desist from warlike manifestations
in the said area and participate in seeking for a peaceful solution with the affected
nations, including the Philippines under the arbitrations of the United
Nations.
In likewise manner, we also protest the expansion of United
States’ expanded encroachement in
Southeast Asia which instead of being a deterrent for warlike demonstrations by
China, only provoke more unfavorable reactions from the latter causing more
threat to the peace and tranquility of the nations in the area, and also oppose
America’s renewed efforts to construct military bases in the Philippines in
violation of the country’s sovereignity.
DOWN WITH
CHINA’S BULLYING !
STOP USA
EXPANSIONISM !!!
