Nakahanda ang Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) at Philippine National Police (PNP) sa anumang development kaugnay sa nagaganap na tensyon sa Ukraine at Russia.

Ayon kay Cabinet Secretary at acting presidential spokesman Karlo Nograles, ito ang tiniyak ng AFP at PNP matapos magpatawag ng special meeting si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte, Martes ng gabi (Marso 1).

Ayon kay Nograles, naka-standby na rin ang assets ng AFP at PNP.

“The AFP and the PNP gave assurances that our troops, and our military and police assets stand ready, and that they have respective contingencies prepared for any developments,” pahayag ni Nograles.

Umaapela ang Pilipinas sa Russia at Ukraine na itigil na ang gulo para wala ng buhay na masayang.

“In conclusion, we appeal for an immediate end to the unnecessary loss of life, and call on the states involved to forge an accord that can help prevent a conflagration that could engulf a world still struggling to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic,” pahayag ni Nograles.

“The course of history and the fate of our world will be shaped by the decisions that will be made by its leaders. We are one in prayer, together with all peace-loving citizens, that they be guided by wisdom and a genuine desire to save lives, establish harmony among neighboring nations, and forge a just and lasting peace for humanity,” dagdag ni Nograles.
