China urges Philippines to honour promises of removing Typhon missile system

Beijing, Feb 14 (UNI) A Chinese military spokesperson on Friday denounced the Philippines for using the deployment of the Typhon mid-range missile system as a bargaining chip on the South China Sea issue, warning that such actions endanger the well-being of its people, and regional peace and stability.
Zhang Xiaogang, spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defence, made the remarks in response to a media query regarding the remarks from the Philippine side that it would return the Typhon system to the United States so long as China stops its territorial claims.
Noting that the Typhon missile system is a strategic asset and an offensive weapon, Zhang said that the Philippine side had repeatedly gone back on its words and brought in the system to cater to the U.S. side.
