在6月1日举行的香格里拉对话会上,菲律宾防长特奥多罗在南海议题上向中国泼脏水。对此,国防大学代表团孟祥青少将驳斥,菲律宾防长的发言,无端攻击指责中国,罔顾事实,混淆视听,煽动对抗,挑拨离间,颠倒黑白,与地区和平稳定的大趋势背道而驰,与绝大多数国家拒绝选边站队,坚持独立自主以及要和平、要发展、要交流、要合作的共同愿望格格不入,我们坚决反对,绝不接受。

At the 22nd Shangri-La Dialogue on Sunday, Philippine Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro smeared China on the South China Sea issue. In response, Major General Meng Xiangqing from the delegation of the Chinese People's Liberation Army National Defence University, said Teodoro's remarks were unfounded attacks that disregarded facts, misled the public, incited confrontation, sowed discord, and distorted right and wrong. Such statements run counter to the prevailing trend of peace and stability in the region, and are completely out of step with the common desire of the vast majority of countries to reject taking sides, uphold independence, and pursue peace, development, dialogue, and cooperation. We firmly oppose and categorically reject them, Meng said.
