The US wasn''t kicked out they choose not to renew the leases on the bases I'm an American living here since 1988 born and raised in the United States. It's like you not renewing an Apartment lease and you moved because you didn't like the rent increase.

@@user-wu9ec6pi3b Wrong. The Filipino senate voted to have them gone. It's in the Clark museum. Exactly what every senator said about the US. You should read more and talk less.

The 1991 treaty between the Philippines and the US would have given the US 10 more years at Subic Naval Base - but 12 senators made the historic decision to vote no

The war should go to the soils of USA not here in the Philippines. It is their war with China. Not ours. If they were not here, China would not be stricter in the disputed seas. Many Filipinos know now.

Unfortunately my President is CONFUSED!

[@Cheesy_Shrek]

Why is that

[@moniqueschub5435]

We Filipino don't want war we just want peace. 😢

[@brianroberson902]

Then do what China tells you to do.

[@sophiemay7835]

If you Filipinos really want peace, you shall follow justice. No justice, no peace. Do not be greedy, do not be illogical, and do not act as a puppet to the US-LED Western imperialist powers which for centuries have been treating the Third World countries like dirt.

That’s our PBBM! Very intelligent! Not a dimwit . When he makes comments, you could gauge the depth of his knowldege and intellect.. And he does not shun from making a comment or an answerwhenever a question is posed for him. And if doesn’t know the answer, he tells it so, unabashedly. That’s confidence!

Geez! The journalists are gas lighting the situation. Not the right choice or smart question but a solid answer by Marcos.

Thank you Mr. PRESIDENT YOU CARE FOR THE PHILIPPINES

[@robertoaseremo4163]

Unlike Former Phil Pres Duterte he side with China 🇨🇳 and instead Philippines 🇵🇭 side to protect . He is just protect interest of China 🇨🇳

[@boy_named_niel]

It’s called strategic ambiguity. It’s where China is not sure the US will defend the Philippines, so they don’t attack just in case. But also the Philippines is not 100% sure the US will protect them, so they don’t do anything unnecessarily provocative.

A very intelligent answer from our good President. Only fucking politicians in the Phillipines will do something stupid just to dishonor a good leader. We need leaders that will stand to unite the Filipinos no matter the shortcomings. What we need is to unite and move forward for us to prosper.
