菲律宾海警队撤回舰艇从南海礁台离开

菲律宾海警队发言人杰伊·塔里埃拉(Jay Tarriela)周日表示,BRP 特雷莎·马格班瓦(Teresa Magbanua)号因恶劣天气、物资短缺和需撤离几名需要医疗照顾的人员,返回了港口。

菲律宾总统府秘书长卡洛·诺格拉斯(Nograles)在一份声明中说,该舰艇将在重新补给和维修后,恢复执行任务。

中国曾多次要求菲律宾立即撤回舰艇,包括最近的一次对话。中国声称几乎整个南海为其所有,并且Sabina礁台正成为中菲之间的一个敏感议题。北京和马尼拉互相指责对方意图在珊瑚礁上建立永久存在。

中国海警局发言人刘德军(Liu Dejun)周日在中国海警官方微博账号上表示,海警将继续在中国管辖的水域内执行法律任务,并坚定地保护国家领土主权和海洋权益。

根据菲律宾当地媒体的报道,这些海警人员在海上生活了五个月后因脱水被用担架运回岸边。2012年,菲律宾舰艇曾在另一个南海敏感地区-中沙群岛链 – 的一场对峙后撤离。随后,中国实际控制了该岛礁群。
