China Coast Guard (CCG) should be made accountable for their “piracy” and should return the rifles and other equipment they “looted” from navy troops during their mission to a military outpost in the West Philippine Sea.
Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) chief of staff Gen. Romeo Brawner Jr. made the bold demand on Wednesday as the military reels from the aftermath of CCG’s actions against navy personnel resupplying BRP Sierra Madre in Ayungin (Second Thomas) Shoal last June 17 (Monday).
“For me this is piracy already, because they boarded our boats illegally [and] they got our equipment,” Brawner said in a press conference here at AFP’s Western Command (Wescom) headquarters.
