Philippines, US considering new military pact: Report
By Kaelan Deese - 02/28/20 02:14 PM EST
 

A new military pact between the Philippines and the U.S. is reportedly under consideration.

The Defense Department was left "extremely concerned" after Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who has said he plans to step down later this year, ended the two-decade-old Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) earlier this month.

Now, diplomats from both countries are looking for "ways and means to see how we can come up with something similar," Philippine Ambassador to the U.S. Jose Manuel Romualdez said at a forum in Manila, Bloomberg reported Thursday.

Our opening negotiating position should be "We're leaving your sewer.  Convince us we're wrong."
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

@Cyber Liberty

Add :"Tell us how much you are willing to pay us for the protection of our military before we come. If it's not enough,we are not coming." to the deal,and we have a winner.

We are NOT "the World Daddy" and it's past time for use to keep "paying allowances to unruly children who are not ours."
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
