11月30日下午，国防部举行例行记者会，国防部新闻局局长、国防部新闻发言人吴谦大校答记者问。
记者：据报道，菲律宾有官员表示，菲澳南海海上合作活动期间，中国军机在菲军机附近飞行。请问发言人有何评论？对菲澳、菲美在南海开展联合巡逻有何进一步评论？
吴谦：菲方有关言论与事实不符，纯属恶意炒作。需要指出的是，有关国家间的防务安全合作不得针对第三方，不得损害第三方利益，不得破坏地区和平稳定。我们坚决反对任何在南海挑动对抗、加剧地区紧张的行径。我们正告菲方切实遵守《南海各方行为宣言》精神，停止一切侵权行径。中国军队始终保持高度警戒，坚决捍卫国家主权和海洋权益，坚定维护南海和平稳定。
Wu Qian:The remarks of the Philippine side are inconsistent with what really happened on the ground and is a sheer malicious hype-up. Defense and security cooperation between countries shall not target at any third party or harm a third party’s interests and shall not undermine regional peace and stability. We oppose any act that stir up confrontation and heighten tensions in the South China Sea. We urge the Philippine side to abide by the spirit of the DOC, stop violating China’s sovereignty. The Chinese military will stay vigilant and firmly safeguard national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests and defend peace and stability in the South China Sea.
