Amid a new round of Philippine hype over its so-called territorial claims involving China's Huangyan Dao, the US State Department on Saturday, in a statement, smeared China's Huangyan Dao National Nature Reserve as "destabilizing" and pledged support for its ally. A Chinese expert said Washington is encouraging Manila to disrupt regional peace while offering little more than hollow verbal assurances, further undermining stability in the South China Sea.
The statement, published on the State Department's official website and attributed to spokesperson Thomas Pigott, claimed that the US "rejects China's ongoing attempts to enforce its destabilizing 'national nature reserve'" at Huangyan Dao.
Pigott also alleged that the reserve would "deny Filipino fishermen access to their traditional fishing ground as reflected in the 2016 Arbitral Award."
It is absurd for the US, a country that is not a party to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), to pass judgment on the Huangyan Dao National Nature Reserve, Yang Xiao, a research fellow at the Institute of Peaceful Development under the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Sunday.
The US has neither jurisdiction in the South China Sea nor the standing to judge regional affairs. Its allegation of the reserve at this time is merely intended to echo the Philippines' latest hype surrounding Huangyan Dao, Yang said.
At a time when the broader China-US relationship is moving toward an easing of tensions, attempts by certain US officials to encourage provocations out of narrow political interests run counter to the overall trend, Yang said.
Pigott further smeared the reserve as "another unilateral attempt by China to use dubious environmental and legal pretexts," which he claimed was intended to advance China's territorial and maritime claims in the South China Sea "at the expense of its neighbors."
"The United States stands with our Ally, the Philippines, in support of a free and open Indo-Pacific," Pigott claimed.
The expert added that the statement also invoked the unlawful and invalid 2016 "South China Sea Arbitral Award" as a pretext, seeking to portray China as a destabilizing force in the region and mislead the international community.
The US statement comes as Manila has sought to advance its claims over Huangyan Dao through various means, including by delimitation of the so-called "baselines of the territorial sea" of the Chinese territory of Huangyan Dao. The Chinese Foreign Ministry on July 31 described the move as "illegal, null and void."
Yang said that amid a broader retrenchment of its global strategy, the US is seeking to encourage countries including Japan and the Philippines to stage regional provocations and disrupt stability. Such tactics include organizing joint military exercises and tolerating provocative actions by Manila in the South China Sea.
However, Washington is no longer capable of offering the Philippines substantive support and can provide little more than rhetorical backing, Yang said. Such statements amount to words on paper and have no practical effect, he added.
China's State Council approved the establishment of the Huangyan Dao National Nature Reserve in September 2025. China has since conducted multiple scientific surveys in the area.
On August 1, China issued management measures for the reserve, prohibiting unauthorized fishing and mining, the harvesting or excavation of corals, coral reefs and giant clams, as well as other activities that damage rare marine species or the reserve's natural ecosystems.
China has also discovered a globally rare coral reef growth structure-type marine blue hole at Huangyan Dao. Preliminary geochronological analyses suggest that the blue hole formed at least 3,200 years ago, while surveys have found rich biodiversity in its surrounding waters. The finding is considered further evidence of the effectiveness and necessity of China's ecological protection measures at Huangyan Dao.
。刚刚结束的混合全能决赛中，同为15岁的全红婵、白钰鸣搭档获得冠军。这是两人的第一枚世锦赛金牌，也是属于中国跳水队的第一百枚世锦赛金牌！ 对于两位选手而言，这场比赛意义特殊：这是全红婵首次在国际大赛中角逐跳板，也是白钰鸣的世锦赛首秀。

二 | 许多观众可能对跳水混合全能项目不太了解，它在2015年被纳入到游泳世锦赛比赛中。林珊/杨健曾于2019年夺冠，那是中国队过往三届世锦赛中获得的唯一一枚该项目金牌。混合全能跳水极具观赏性，对参赛选手的综合能力也提出了更高要求。

三 | 按照规则，混合全能比赛分六轮进行，搭档出战的两名选手不仅要在各自的三跳中涵盖跳台与跳板，全队还需完成向前、向后、反身、向内、转体、臂立等全部六个组别的动作。中国队原计划由张家齐出战混合全能，最终由全红婵与白钰鸣搭档。

四 | 全红婵和白钰鸣都以跳台为主，两人年纪相仿，也均是第一次征战世锦赛。在此前结束的女子10米跳台决赛中，奥运冠军全红婵已经上演世锦赛首秀并拿到一枚银牌。白钰鸣来自陕西榆林，去年陕西全运会上他开始崭露头角，在青年组和成年组比赛中拿到两金两铜共四枚奖牌。特别是在高手如林的成年组男子10米跳台比赛中，当时年仅14岁的白钰鸣获得第七名。白钰鸣不仅练跳水起步早，平日训练也很刻苦，被视为中国跳水的未来之星。通过自身不懈努力，15岁的他获得了世锦赛这次宝贵的锻炼机会。今晚的比赛中，全红婵个人的第一跳和第三跳为跳板。第一轮跳板首秀，全红婵选择了难度系数2.7的动作405C，有效分为两个8.0和一个7.5，最终得到63.45分。个人第二跳，登上十米台的全红婵祭出了拿手的臂立动作，完美一跳后得到88.00的高分。白钰鸣第一跳稍有瑕疵，但他及时调整，以高质量完成第二跳。

五 | 两人的最后一跳，跳板上的全红婵与跳台上的白钰鸣均顺利完成各自动作，中国队以总分382.00分完赛，获得冠军。这是中国跳水队的第一百枚世锦赛金牌！ 中国跳水队素有“梦之队”之称，世锦赛百金的成绩再次印证了这一点。截至目前，本届游泳世锦赛跳水项目已结束5个单项的角逐，中国跳水队包揽全部5枚金牌。余下的比赛，中国队每项都是夺冠热门，包括全红婵搭档陈芋汐出战的女双10米跳台。再来看看网友们对全红婵跳板首秀的评价： 梦之队，继续加油！
