ByPresident Marcos can rescind the so-called “gentleman’s agreement” that his predecessor entered into with China which bars the Philippines from sending repair materials to the BRP Sierra Madre in the Ayungin Shoal, retired Supreme Court Justice Francis Jardeleza on Monday said.

Retired Supreme Court Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio previously said the agreement was a “disguised surrender” of the country’s EEZ rights.
