00:00 We are discussing with the head of the Bambang Marcos, the Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fungyo,

00:06 the issue of the West Philippine Sea.

00:08 Our guests are Ivan Mayrina and Joseph Moro.

00:11 Testing the waters, in other words,

00:16 the Chinese are trying to destroy a resupply ship of the Philippines

00:21 and to destroy the BRP Cabra in the island of October.

00:27 China has tried to assert its credibility and importance of the defense of America

00:32 under the Mutual Defense Treaty.

00:34 According to the three senators' statement to US President Joe Biden,

00:39 America should follow the rules.

00:42 The Biden administration has repeatedly stated that

00:45 any attack on any Philippine vehicle, including the Coast Guard,

00:50 should be enough to break the Mutual Defense Treaty

00:53 and to defend America at all costs.

00:56 Biden has not yet given his statement.

00:58 So, it is possible that America will just be a hook

01:01 in the next resupply missions according to the AFP,

01:04 it is important to succeed in doing so.

01:06 The AFP's answer is,

01:08 Our role and mission is for us to undertake.

01:11 It is for our country to make sure that we fulfill our responsibility.

01:16 According to the Armed Forces of the Philippines,

01:18 America is already helping through its technical assistance

01:22 in resupply missions like the Union Shoal.

01:25 China also said that America's influence

01:29 is an insult to the Philippine's actions in the West Philippine Sea.

01:33 Maybe they are just hurt because many people around the world

01:36 are aware of the mistakes they are doing.

01:39 The AFP has once again denied China's statement

01:42 that it blocked the BRP Conrado Yap on October 30

01:45 in Scarborough Shoal or Bajo de Masinloc

01:47 due to trespassing and not saying goodbye to China.

01:51 The closest point that they have is about 2.7 nautical miles.

01:56 They should not be there and they should not be harassed by our fishermen.

02:00 The situation in the West Philippine Sea

02:03 is one of the topics that President Bongbong Marcos

02:06 and Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio

02:09 are hoping to discuss in their official visit to the Philippines starting tomorrow.

02:12 Japan is one of the countries that has been supporting the Philippines

02:15 and is also condemning China's aggressive actions.

02:18 Aside from helping to upgrade the Philippine Coast Guard,

02:22 they are hoping to have a deal for a deeper cooperation

02:26 between the Philippines and Japan.

02:29 I am optimistic that there will be some agreement signed

02:33 and I am optimistic on the progress of the way forward

02:36 on the reciprocal access agreement between Japan and the Philippines.

02:40 After their visit by the President,

02:42 Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will also make a speech

02:45 at the joint special session of the Congress on Saturday morning.

02:49 On the visit of the President to Japan this February,

02:52 he claimed that he won 13 billion US dollars in investment pledges,

02:55 according to Palacio.
