WPS alliance calls for unified Asean action against Chinese aggression
Members of Alliance of West Philippine Sea Watchers wave Philippine and Vietnamese flags as they shout slogans during a press conference at a restaurant in Quezon City on Oct. 10, 2024. In response to China’s aggressive actions in the West Philippine Sea, the group called for a unified Asean stance, especially from Vietnam, to support the Philippines in defending sovereignty and safeguarding shared maritime interests. They added that a collective approach was vital to uphold international law and regional stability. The Philippines and Vietnam share a history of mutual support, as shown by the recent assistance of distressed Vietnamese vessels by the Philippine Navy, emphasizing that the strong bond between the two countries is based on cooperation, respect, and commitment to peace.
