Abstract

The article reports the move by the government of China on July 13, 2016 to issue a white paper presenting its position on how to resolve its territorial dispute with the Philippines. Based on the document issued by China's State Council Information Office, the Philippines' claims are groundless under either history or international law. The paper also claimed that the Philippines has abused the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) dispute settlement process.
