MANILA — China's envoy in the Philippines on Friday said the relationship between Beijing and Manila “deepened” under President Rodrigo Duterte’s administration, noting that disputes in the South China Sea have been supposedly “properly handled.”
“In the past five years, with the commitment to peace and friendship, our two countries have continuously deepened pragmatic cooperation, properly handled maritime disputes, and brought tangible benefits to our peoples,” said Huang. Beijing lays expansive claims over the waters despite a July 2016 UN tribunal invalidating it. Duterte has downplayed the incursions, as he pursued Chinese investments, infrastructure funding and COVID-19 vaccine supply.
Earlier this week, Duterte said his 2016 campaign promise in a bid to challenge Chinese aggression in the disputed area was a "pure joke" and that those who believed it were "stupid."
Properly handled or the president properly shackled?
Ganyang ganyan sa pic ang paghandle ni Duts, kusang binigau 😂
Define properly handled? 🤣🤣🤣
This is equivalent to saying 'Duterte already gave up our territories to China'
good dog sya diba! ang swerte ng China masunurin ang aso nila!
