China has strongly criticized Taiwan's foreign minister for attending WHO-linked meetings in Geneva, accusing Taipei of using the event to promote independence.

The Chinese Embassy in Manila is orchestrating a hybrid pressure campaign targeting independent Philippine journalists and institutions, exploiting diplomatic neutrality to undermine transparency efforts in the West Philippine Sea.
