China WARNS EU To ‘Stay Out Of South China Sea’ Row After EU-Philippines Meet Against Beijing

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone. #China #SouthChinaSea #EUChinaTensions #Philippines #KajaKallas #BeijingWarning #Geopolitics #ASEAN #IndoPacific #ChinaPhilippines #EUForeignPolicy #TerritorialDispute #SouthChinaSeaConflict #SpratlyIslands #Manila #BeijingEmbassy #DiplomaticTensions #ChinaSeaRow #AsiaPacific #GeopoliticalFlashpoint Also Read What Is This Fusarium Graminearum, Dangerous Fungus Which Is Smuggled By Chinese Nationals To US? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/what-is-this-fusarium-graminearum-dangerous-fungus-which-is-smuggled-by-chinese-nationals-to-us-4171729.html?ref=DMDesc J-35 Fighter Jet May Head To Pakistan As India Accelerates AMCA Push :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/j-35-fighter-jet-may-head-to-pakistan-as-india-accelerates-amca-push-4165099.html?ref=DMDesc China, Pakistan Agree With Kabul To Expand CPEC To Afghanistan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-pakistan-agree-with-kabul-to-expand-cpec-to-afghanistan-4159507.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~GR.125~

Tensions in the South China Sea have escalated sharply as China’s navy launched combat readiness patrols near the disputed Scarborough Shoal, a territory claimed by the Philippines.
