Beijing — China on Wednesday warned the Philippines it risks 'greater insecurity for itself' after the United States said it would provide $500 million in additional military funding to Manila in the face of Beijing's growing assertiveness.

In Manila on Tuesday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken unveiled what he called a 'once-in-a-generation investment' to help modernize the Philippine armed forces and coast guard.
