Malacañang denied on Friday a supposed 2-year-old verbal agreement between President Rodrigo Duterte and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, which an official said allowed China to fish in Philippine waters.

In 2019, then Malacañang spokesman Salvador Panelo said the two leaders' agreement for China to fish in the Philippines' exclusive economic zone was "legally binding and enforceable."

Roque's statement comes after some 240 Chinese boats were seen swarming the West Philippine Sea, the Philippines' exclusive economic zone in the disputed South China Sea, despite several diplomatic protests from Manila. "However, the President also recognizes that subsistence fishing may be allowed as a recognition of the traditional fishing rights pointed out by the Arbitral Tribunal itself in its Award on Jurisdiction in the case between the Philippines and China," he said.
