Philippine Coast Guard vessel BRP Teresa Magbanua in the West Philippine Sea The Philippine Coast Guard maintained its presence in the country’s exclusive economic zone by deploying its coast guard vessels in the West Philippine Sea .
“This unwavering presence complies with the standing policy direction of His Excellency President @bongbongmarcos aimed at thwarting the normalization and legitimization of the Chinese Coast Guard’s illegal actions, which may lead to assertions of control over these waters.” Tarriela said on X. WPS monitor and Sealight director Ray Powell told Manila Standard that the recent development in WPS has nothing to do with the Typhon deployment in the Philippines.
China earlier issued a stern warning to the Philippines over its planned purchase of the US-made Typhon mid-range capability missile system, saying there will be consequences if the acquisition pushes through.
