China refused to back down to US Secretary of State John Kerry’s demands that the country stops land reclamation on islands in the South China Sea.

The United States has been increasingly critical of China’s activities in the South China Sea, which have included building up artificial islands in the area disputed by China, the Philippines, Vietnam and other countries. China does not consider the United States a party to the

land reclamation efforts on islands.

“The United States has for long turned a blind eye to some other claimants’ large-scale schemes to “manufacture sovereignty” — as senior U.S. diplomat Daniel Russel recently accused China of doing — on Chinese sovereign islands,” state news agency Xinhua said in a commentary.

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius was also in Beijing on Saturday to discuss climate change ahead of a summit on the issue in Paris.
