00:00Well, we have called him many, many times.
00:04Yes, well, the European Union has decided to formalize a discussion with the EU ambassador,
00:14but we are actually constantly in touch with him.
00:18I think we have made our – we have already made our position very clear.
00:23We have made our objections to some of the actions that were undertaken by the maritime
00:31forces of the PLA.
00:33Also, our objections that we have also made very clear, not only to the ambassador, but
00:39also to Beijing.
00:43So it will really depend on how formal we want to make this complaint.
00:51But, you know, we have – we have – how many?
00:55We have over a hundred in the protest.
00:59We have already made a similar number of remarks.
01:03So we have to do more than just that.
01:07Because if we are going to fight the ambassador, we have to make our position clear.
01:11We don't want this to happen.
01:13And that's it.
01:15But we have to do more than that.
01:17So, yeah.
01:19Sir, just a quick follow-up.
01:21Do you think, sir, it was an armed attack?
01:23Because, sir – I mean, was it an armed attack, sir?
01:25It was not armed.
01:27It was not an armed attack.
01:29But it was a deliberate – it was a deliberate action to stop our people.
01:39But in the process – and in the process of that, in Mohan and Kyle, they boarded a
01:45Philippine vessel and took the equipment from the Philippine vessel.
01:51So although there were no arms involved, nonetheless, it is still a deliberate action, and it is
02:01essentially an illegal action that was taken by the Chinese government.
02:05Sir, that's not my point.
02:07That's not my point.
02:09How come you don't know your statement?
02:11Because I'm just understanding your answer.
02:13Because at first, we didn't see the data.
02:17Maybe it's just a mistake.
02:19But when I went to West Point and talked to the UN Secretary-General, I told him what
02:27really happened.
02:29It's clear that he didn't misunderstand.
02:31We really went there to destroy our people.
