The DFA says it 'continues to focus its efforts on advancing cooperation with all countries'
MANILA, Philippines – While vowing to “continue to focus its efforts on advancing cooperation with all countries,” the Philippines’ Department of Foreign Affairs said Monday, May 14, that it would “look into any reports of illegal and unlawful activities” of diplomats posted in the Philippines.
The DFA has said that only President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., as chief executive, may enter into bilateral deals of this sort, and that no agreement was made by a cabinet-ranked Philippine official. Said the DFA in its May 13 statement: “Foreign diplomats accredited to the Philippines are accorded the necessary liberties to conduct their diplomatic duties, with the expectation that they, in turn, will conduct their diplomatic activities with the highest standards of integrity and professionalism, in pursuit of common interests and mutually beneficial outcomes.”
