China is neither confirming nor denying a claim by Sen. Imee Marcos that it has hypersonic missiles aimed at 25 targets in the Philippines.
MANILA, Philippines —
Marcos earlier this week claimed to have information on China’s supposed 25 missile targets in the Philippines. She did not provide details. “We urge relevant country to listen to the concerns its people have and the call from other countries in the region, bear in mind the fundamental interests of its own people, stay independent, good-neighborliness and friendship, earnestly respect other countries’ security concerns, and act to keep the region peaceful and stable,” the Chinese official said.
“We are not provoking. We do not seek conflict. But we will not back down if what is ours is illegally taken by somebody, especially a bully,” Teodoro declared.
