Ejercito, iba pang senador tiwala kay dating DFA Sec. Locsin sa “Ph-China affairs”
Magandang hakbang ayon sa mga senador ang pagtatalaga ng Malakanyang kay dating Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr., bilang Special Envoy to the People’s Republic of China for Special Concerns.
Sinabi ni Deputy Majority Leader JV Ejercito may mga napatunayan na si Locsin bilang diplomat, legal expert at mambabatas.
“Given his experience as Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) secretary, lawyer and former legislator, I’m sure Ambassador Teddy Locsin could be the best one for the job as special envoy for special concerns,” ani Ejercito.
Ayon naman kay Senate President Juan Miguel “Migz” Zubiri “perfect for that job” si Locsin, na sinabi niyang pinatunayan na ang katapatan sa pag-protekta sa interes ng bansa.
“Being a former DFA Secretary, as well as the former Ambassador to the United Nations, he has the expertise and experience in dealing with China,” diin nito.
Sa pagpuri ni Sen. Grace Poe sa ginawa ni Pangulong Marcos Jr., sinabi niya na ” impressive and interesting choice” si Locsin.
“He is an adroit diplomat and skilled leader, unafraid to go to whatever lengths necessary for the best interest of the Filipinos, We hope he can help the country navigate through the rough waters of the West Philippine Sea to defend and protect what belongs to us,” dagdag ng senadora.
Pinuri din ni Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero si Pangulong Marcos Jr., sa inisyatibo para sa mapayapang pakiikipag-ayos sa China kasabay nang paggiit sa sobereniya ng Pilipinas sa West Philippine Sea.
“Any action that promotes talks, dialogue or other peaceful means with the objective of achieving greater understanding, restraint and cooperation is always most welcome,” sabi pa ni Escudero.
Tiwala naman si Sen. Jinggoy Estrada na magiging kapaki-pakinabang ang malawak na karanasan at kaalaman ni Locsin sa bagong trabaho nito para sa administrasyong-Marcos Jr.
“As an experienced diplomat and skilled communicator, his deep understanding of diplomatic protocol, international relations, and the nuances of various issues will enable him to engage with China on a wide range of concerns. Clear communication is crucial for building mutual understanding and finding common ground,” ayon pa kay Estrada.
Dagdag pa nito: “Pinatuyan din ng Pangulo ang pagiging tapat niya sa mga naunang pahayag na nais niyang tugunan ang mga alitan sa teritoryo ng Pilipinas sa China sa pamamagitan ng diplomatikong negosasyon at panindigan ang pagiging “friend to all and an enemy to none” ng ating bansa.”
