Beijing’s South China Sea Behavior Must Be Challenged, US Navy Says

MANILA, Philippines – China’s ‘aggressive behavior’ in the South China Sea, including the use of a water canon by its coast guard against a Philippine vessel, must be challenged and checked, the commander of the U.S. Navy’s Seventh Fleet said Sunday.

Vice Admiral Karl Thomas assured the Philippines of U.S. backing in the face of ‘shared challenges’ in the region, saying: ‘My forces are out here for a reason.’
