“Ang Hulyo 2016 arbitral award sa South China Sea dispute ay hindi nagbubuklod sa China dahil ito ay "hindi kailanman naging bahagi" ng ligal na paglilitis sa Permanent Court of Arbitration.”

What Vera Files found

Nakasaad sa United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) na “ang di pagsipot o kabiguan ng isang partido na ipagtanggol ang kaso nito ay hindi dapat maging isang hadlang sa mga paglilitis." Ang China, na pinagtibay ang UNCLOS noong Hunyo 1996, ay "partido pa rin sa arbitrasyon" at "nakatali sa anumang award" na inisyu ng awtorisadong tribunal, na pinagtibay ng huli sa Award on Jurisdiction and Admissibility nito.
