Malacañang denied there is a verbal fishing agreement between President Rodrigo Duterte and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, stressing the Philippines' chief executive does not condone 'unlawful' fishing by any state in the country's waters.

[Translation: Will you allow the Chinese to fish? Of course. That's what we talked about before, that's why we talked. And that was why we were allowed to fish again. It was a mutual agreement. Let's give and take. You can fish here, and I can fish there.]"A treaty must be in writing," Roque pointed out, citing Article 2 of the Vienna Convention on the Law on Treaties.

"No such treaty or agreement exists between the Philippines and China."China claims almost the entire South China Sea, and has repeatedly rejected the 2016 arbitral ruling that recognized Manila's sovereign rights in areas of its exclusive economic zone that Beijing contests. The tribunal also invalidated the East Asian giant's sweeping"historic rights" claims to the disputed waters.
