In the meantime, Escudero said that the DFA should not file diplomatic protests only when incidents occur. Instead, they should make every effort to engage in meaningful dialogue with their counterparts in Beijing to prevent further escalation. This should be done while ensuring we do not concede any of our rights and privileges in our claimed territory compared to theirs.
