Chinese ambassador threatens to take it by force; Philippines plans to propose declaring him 'persona non grata'; Senator blasts: Better to pack up and leave voluntarily ZH中國大使嗆可武力輕取 菲擬提案列「不受歡迎人物」參議員轟:不如主動打包走人
Newtalk新聞 菲律賓與中國的外交摩擦再度升溫,中國駐菲律賓大使井泉日前宣稱,若中國決定對菲律賓動武,將能輕易取勝,引發菲國政界強烈不滿。菲律賓參議員杜爾弗(Erwin Tulfo)19 日表示,正與多名參議員研議提出動議,要求將井泉列為「不受歡迎人物」,更喊話井泉與其等到被正式宣布,不如主動打包走人。 杜爾弗受訪時表示,他與參議院多數黨的議員正準備提出相關提案,最快可能 19 日至 20 日提交。他認為,井泉近期的發言已引發爭議,菲方有必要表達立場。所謂「不受歡迎人物」(persona non grata)是外交與政治場合常見的表態方式,若相關提案獲得支持,將進一步加深中菲雙方的外交對立。 這場風波源於菲律賓國防部長鐵歐多洛(Gilberto Teodoro Jr.)日前批評中國是區域內的「麻煩製造者」。此前,菲律賓副總統杜特蒂(Sara Duterte)曾反指馬尼拉政府才是「東南亞的麻煩製造者」,鐵歐多洛隨後出面反駁,雙方言論交鋒也讓菲國內部政治爭議延伸至中菲關係。 面對菲律賓官員的批評,井泉日前在奎松市出席活動期間接受媒體訪問,談及中國可能採取的軍事行動時表示,中國若要動用武力,「很容易就能獲勝」,但強調「我們不會選擇動用武力,我們熱愛和平。」這番言論在菲律賓引起強烈反彈,外交部隨即採取行動。 菲律賓外交部長拉薩洛(Maria Theresa Lazaro)19 日召見井泉,當面表達菲方對相關言論的嚴重關切與強烈反對,並直指其上週對媒體發表的說法帶有挑釁意味,無法接受。 至於中方可能對批評中國的菲律賓政客採取限制入境等反制措施,杜爾弗則表示並不在意。他指出,「到目前為止,我根本沒有計畫前往中國、香港或澳門他們的領土。」 杜爾弗也強調,國會議員既然是由民眾選出,就有責任針對公共議題發聲,不能因為擔心外界反應而噤聲。他表示,政治人物之所以公開表達意見,正是因為他們享有這項權利。延伸閱讀:防「零元購」洗劫! 米蘭精品店急暫停營業 義大利擬派五百軍人進駐維安為防強劫、縱火等失控狀況再發生! 法國巴黎在內等多個城市實施宵禁 俄軍空襲烏克蘭釀10死!澤連斯基控盟友未預警 急會洛克希德馬丁爭取防空飛彈菲律賓外長緊急召見中國大使 主張動武言論「挑釁」且「不可被接受」民進黨示警中國介選手法:造假緋聞、假醜聞、動員在地協力者跟監暴力
