00:00On August 19, two Philippine seaports broke the Chinese government's permission to trespass into the waters near the Xianbing River in the South China Sea.
00:10They disregarded the warnings and warnings of the Chinese seaports and deliberately collided with the Chinese seaports on the spot.
00:18The responsibility for the collision of the two ships is entirely on the Chinese seaports.
00:23According to the Domestic and International Laws, the Chinese seaports take necessary measures to deal with illegal ships.
00:29The operation on the spot is professional, restrictive and regulated.
00:32I would like to emphasize that the Xianbing River is part of the South China Sea.
00:37It is China's own territory and no-man's-land.
00:40The Chinese seaports broke into the Xianbing River and attempted to replenish the Philippine seaports in the Xianbing River.
00:49They sought to achieve a long-term existence.
00:52The actions of the Chinese seaports are a serious violation of China's sovereignty,
00:55a serious violation of the provisions of the South China Sea Act,
00:58and a serious violation of the stability and peace of the South China Sea.
01:01China is firmly opposed to this.
01:03China will continue to take firm and effective measures in accordance with the law,
01:07safeguarding its own territorial sovereignty and maritime rights,
01:10and safeguarding the seriousness of the South China Sea Act.
