President Trump said on Tuesday the United States would “deal with” Yemen’s Houthi group if it imposes a blockade on shipping or energy exports from Saudi Arabia via the Red Sea. Speaking in the Oval Office, he said the action has not occurred “so far” but “maybe will,” and reiterated “if this happens, we will act.” He added the US has taken action against the Houthis before and “haven’t heard from them” since those initial measures.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a routine briefing that China has taken a stern position on the recent China–Philippines maritime incident and described the actions as deliberate provocation by Philippine military and police. Asked whether the incident would affect Beijing’s peripheral diplomacy or Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s agenda at ASEAN foreign ministers’ meetings in Manila, Lin said China’s neighboring-diplomacy policy remains unchanged and that East Asian cooperation platforms are not venues for bilateral maritime disputes. He urged the Philippines, as ASEAN rotating chair, to promote dialogue and cooperation rather than put political self-interest above regional peace and stability, adding that those behind the provocations are obvious.
