Calling out a diplomat for undiplomatic conduct toward senior elected officials of the host country and politely asking his government to recall him is not a failure of diplomacy but a dignified way to preserve bilateral ties, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Wednesday.
Lacson directed this message to the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) amid the Chinese Embassy in Manila’s social media posts criticizing Philippine officials who had taken issue with Ambassador Jing Quan’s recent remarks.
