Washington, D.C.-Dapat na patuloy na rebyuhin ang trade relations sa pagitan ng Amerika at Pilipinas.
Pahayag ito ni Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. sa dinner na inorganisa ng Philippine Embassy sa Blair House for the President sa Washington.
Sabi ng Pangulo, parehong nakikinabang ang magkabilang partido sa naturang kasunduan at suportado naman aniya ni US President Joe Biden ang economic transformation ng Pilipinas.
“I was telling the President, it’s very hard to categorize the partnership between the PH and US as one thing. It’s not just in the area of defense maybe now there’s a prominent one that we hear about but in terms of trade, in terms of education, in terms of culture, in terms of people-to-people as it has come to be known, all of these things have been going on for a hundred years,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
“But it still needs to be continually revisited so as we can make the most of our friendship and our partnership. And so that is the world as I see it today and the reasons that will come. That is why I am very grateful for the invitation of President Biden to come to Washington, D.C. and gain the opportunity to meet the leaders of the government,” dagdag ng Pangulo.
Pero gaya aniya ng ibang relasyon, dumaan din sa pagsubok ang ugnayan ng Pilipinas at Amerika,
“But similarly to our ambassadors’ friendships, like two friendships, you go to turbulent times when there are misunderstandings, when there are difficulties, when other forces prevail upon both sides of the partnership,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
“But between the Philippines and the United states, we have prevailed through all that like a true friendship. And the reason for that I believe is that we truly have come to an understanding as to how we believe certain values and what is important, and our role in the world and that has never really been diminished,” dagdag ng Pangulo.
