South China Sea feud simmers 10 years after ruling

China criticized a US-led coalition of 14 nations, including Japan and the Philippines, for opposing destabilizing actions in the South China Sea 10 years after an international arbitration ruling rejected Beijing's claims. China dismissed the coalition's statement as 'waste paper' and reiterated its rejection of the ruling, with its ambassador to the Philippines calling the dispute a 'thorn' in bilateral relations.
