Description: President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. asserted the Philippines’ claims in the West Philippine Sea, saying “it is very, very clear” that the area is part of Philippine sovereign territory and its exclusive economic zone.
Speaking before 470 business leaders from around the world at the Forbes CEO Global Conference in Singapore, Marcos maintained that the Philippine position is based on international law, particularly the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
“It is by all rules-based understandings and agreements by international law, especially the UNCLOS,” Marcos said.
Marcos also said it is his constitutional duty to defend the country’s territory. | via Jonathan Andal/GMA News
