Excerpt

The Chinese Embassy in Manila on Wednesday alleged that an “invisible hand” was “poisoning” China’s relations with the Philippines even as it denied Beijing was undertaking illicit military-related activities amid escalating tension in the West Philippine Sea. “There seems to be an ‘invisible hand’ here disseminating disinformation about China, hyping up maritime disputes between the two countries, amplifying our maritime differences, creating tension, and even fear-mongering about war,” it said in a statement. This was aimed at “nothing but poisoning the atmosphere of China-Philippines relations and disrupting their development,’’ it added.
