Marcos Says the Philippines Won’t be a Staging Ground for US War Against China

Does Bongbong have his father’s balls?

We’re going to find out!

The Telegraph:

Ferdinand Marcos, the president of the Philippines, has said he will not allow his country to become a “staging post” for military action ahead of a four-day official visit to Washington DC for security talks.

Mr Marcos’s official visit will be the first by a Philippine president in more than 10 years and comes amid heightened tensions between the United States and China as they compete for strategic advantage in the Indo-Pacific.

Manila has recently faced Beijing’s ire after granting the US access to four additional Filipino military bases. The move gives American forces a stronger foothold in locations close to Taiwan and in the South China Sea, where China is making sweeping territorial claims.

Mr Marcos must also counter domestic disquiet about the risk of being drawn into a future US-China conflict.

“We will not encourage any provocative action that will involve the Philippines by any other country,” Marcos told local reporters on Sunday as he flew to Washington.

“We will not allow the Philippines to be used as a staging post for any kind of military action.”

It’s a bit late for that, bro.

Right now is the time to cancel the deals.

Tell the Yankees to go home.

Get Xi involved.

Say the Philippines is not a war country and is sick of being used that way by Creepy Uncle Sam the child mutilator.

This is decision time.

Four new US bases makes you a belligerent in the US war on China. Sorry, but that’s the facts. That will mean China will be well within its rights to just bomb the shit out of you, and the US is not going to care or do anything to help you.

We all know what your dad would have done.
