國防部：菲方不要誤判形勢 停止徒勞的冒險挑釁

The MND: The Philippine Side Should Not Have Miscalculation and Should Stop Making Risky and Futile Provocations

9月26日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞局副局長、國防部新聞發言人張曉剛大校答記者問。

記者：近日，菲律賓海警9701號船已撤離仙賓礁。菲海警稱，將會向仙賓礁再次派出海警船，不會讓仙賓礁成為第二個黃巖島。菲國防部長稱，如果中方強制移除菲方在仁愛礁的軍艦，這將是戰爭行為。請問對此有何評論？

Question: The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) ship 9701 has withdrew from Xianbin Jiao and the PCG said it would send another ship to the reef and would not let it become a second Huangyan Dao. Philippine Defense Secretary said that if China removes the Philippine ship grounded at Ren'ai Jiao, it would be an act of war. What's your comment?

張曉剛：菲方近日撤離非法滯留中國仙賓礁潟湖的9701號海警船，這是菲方唯一的正確出路，有利于恢復相關海域的和平穩定。中方對包括仁愛礁、仙賓礁在內的南沙群島及其附近海域擁有無可爭辯的主權。需要強調的是，任何侵犯中國領土主權和海洋權益的行為，中方都會予以堅決反制；任何違反《南海各方行為宣言》、破壞地區和平穩定的行徑，都是不得人心的。我們敦促菲方不要心存幻想、誤判形勢，停止一切徒勞的冒險挑釁。

Zhang Xiaogang: The Philippine side recently pulled out PCG 9701 which had been illegally anchored in the lagoon of Xianbin Jiao. It is the only right way forward and is conducive to restoring peace and stability in relevant waters. China has indisputable sovereignty over Nansha Qundao and its adjacent waters, including Ren'ai Jiao and Xianbin Jiao. We will take firm countermeasures against any act that infringes China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests. Actions that violate the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC) and undermine regional peace and stability are unwelcomed. We urge the Philippine side not to have illusion and miscalculation and stop making any risky and futile provocations.
