GRACE POE ON CHINA:

We have shown resolute action by promptly filing diplomatic protests.

We must continue to reject maneuvers that trample on our national sovereignty and international laws.

It is unfortunate that China is once again flexing its muscles with its imperious acts at a time when nations all over the world are busy dealing with Covid-19.

Efforts are better focused on combating the pandemic and how to make economies and lives get back on track.
