The US called on China Saturday to stop its “provocative and unsafe conduct” in the disputed South China Sea, after a Chinese coast guard ship recently cut off a Philippine patrol vessel there, causing a near-collision.

State Department spokesman Matthew Miller, in a statement two days before President Joe Biden is to host Philippine counterpart Ferdinand Marcos Jr. at the White House, called images of the incident a reminder of China’s “harassment and intimidation” of Philippine vessels in the contested waterway.
