China opposed the Philippines’ new maritime law, declaring territorial “baselines” around Scarborough Shoal. The law, signed by President Marcos Jr., asserts the Philippines’ maritime rights, including a 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone, in line with UNCLOS. China claims Scarborough Shoal and argues that the Philippine law violates Chinese sovereignty and maritime rights. Beijing stated it would take necessary steps to defend its claims over the South China Sea territories.
