China's newly released 'standard map' has faced widespread criticism from countries including Indonesia, Vietnam, Taiwan, and the Philippines. These countries argue that the map violates international law and infringes on their territorial sovereignty.
The new map sparked sharp reactions from India, Nepal, Vietnam, Malaysia and Taiwan. The new document was released one week before the G-20 summit in India. President Xi Jinping was to attend but news reports now indicate he will not.
The Philippines, Malaysia, Taiwan and Vietnam have all rejected a map released by China recently that showed Beijing's territorial sovereignty in the South China Sea, joining India in slamming its neighbour for territorial exaggeration.
(UPDATE) PUERTO PRINCESA, Palawan: President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Friday said the Philippines would not take lightly China's 10-dash line map as he reaffirmed that the country would continue to defend 'our territorial sovereignty, our territorial rights' in the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea).
Multiple news outlets reported on Thursday that Xi Jinping is planning not to attend the G-20 leaders' summit in New Delhi, India.
