Beijing to Duterte: South China Sea position not up for talks Chinese President Xi Jinping tells Filipino leader Beijing will not recognise The Hague ruling on disputed territories.
Beijing delivered a tough message to visiting Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, telling him that its position on the disputed South China Sea was not up for negotiation, a spokesman for the leader said on Friday.
China claims most of the contested sea, including waters close to Philippine shores, and has rejected a UN-backed international tribunal ruling that said its assertion to the body of water is without legal basis.
