菲方妄想以漁民捕撈為掩護對中方侵權挑釁
The Philippine Side Attempts to Use Fishing Activities as a Pretext to Infringe upon China’s Sovereignty and Make Provocations
6月26日下午，國防部舉行例行記者會，國防部新聞發言人張曉剛大校答記者問。
記者：據報道，菲律賓啟動所謂“新漁民英雄”計劃，鼓勵菲漁民最大限度地利用南沙海域捕撈。請問發言人有何評論？
Question: It is reported that the Philippines has launched a so-called “New Hero-Fisherfolk” Program to encourage its fishermen to exploit fishing resources in waters near Nansha to the fullest extent. What’s your take on that?
張曉剛：中國對南沙群島及其附近海域擁有無可爭辯的主權，對相關海域擁有主權權利和管轄權。菲方妄想以漁民捕撈為掩護，對中方進行侵權挑釁，是不可能得逞的。中方將依法依規加強相關海域管理，堅決捍衛自身領土主權和海洋權益。
Zhang Xiaogang: China has indisputable sovereignty over Nansha Qundao and its adjacent waters, and has sovereign rights and jurisdiction over relevant waters. The Philippine side attempts to use fishing activities as a pretext to infringe upon China’s sovereignty and make provocations. This will never work. The Chinese side will strengthen administrative control of relevant waters in accordance with laws and regulations, and firmly safeguard its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
