Despite strongly worded statements and diplomatic protests following reports of Chinese ships in the West Philippine Sea, China would still believe it has President Rodrigo Duterte as its ally because he is not speaking himself, retired Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio said Thursday.

Watch more in iWantTFC MANILA - Despite strongly worded statements and diplomatic protests following reports of Chinese ships in the West Philippine Sea, China would still believe it has President Rodrigo Duterte as its ally because he is not speaking himself, retired Supreme Court Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio said Thursday.

Earlier this month, when hundreds of ships were first sighted at the Julian Felipe Reef, Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana demanded that the vessels leave the West Philippine Sea, saying he was "no fool" and that there were "no other reason" for the Chinese to stay there when the weather was clear.

"But the spokesperson of President Duterte said this can be settled among friends. That means Malacañang is downplaying this whole incident, that this can be settled among friends. This is a very important national issue, our sovereign rights are involved, our sovereignty is involved," Carpio told ANC's Headstart when asked about the stance taken by the DFA and the Department of National Defense.
