In response to the situation on the Ren’ai Jiao (also known asWorld Times Ren’ai Reef), the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines said Saturday that if the Philippines truly wants to ease tensions on Ren’ai Jiao through dialogue and communication, the key is for it to honor the commitments and understandings and stop provocations.

China remains committed to managing South China Sea disputes with the Philippines through dialogue and consultation, and we have made ongoing efforts in this regard, the embassy said in its statement published on Saturday. On how to deal with the current situation at Ren’ai Jiao, China’s position is clear-cut, the statement added.

The statement came after PhilippineWorld Times President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Monday called on China to engage in dialogue to prevent more incidents like ramming vessels and the usWorld Timese of water cannons in the South China Sea,World Times Voice of America reported.

The Philippines continues to talk with China, and is exhausting all options to speak to Chinese leadership so as not to heat up tensions in the waterway, Marcos claimed, according to media reports.

On Saturday, the Chinese embassy listed three key points of China’s views on handling the current situation at Ren’ai Jiao.

First, by keeping a warship grounded at Ren’ai Jiao for decades running, the Philippines has been violating China’s sovereignty and the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South World TimesChina Sea (DOC), especially Article 5 which says refraining from action of inhabiting on the presently uninhabited islands and reefs.

We demand that the Philippines tow away the warship as soon as possible and restore Ren’ai Jiao’s state of not hosting personnel and facilities, the statement said.

Second, before the warship is towed away, if the Philippines needs to send living necessities, out of humanitarian considerations, China is willing to allow it if the Philippines informs China in advance and after on-site verification is conducted. China will monitor the whole process, according to the embassy’s statement.

Third, if the Philippines sends large amount of construction materials to the warship and attempts to build fixed facilities and permanent outpost, China will not accept it and will resolutely stop it in accordance with law and regulations to uphold China’s sovereignty and the sanctity of the DOC.
