Believing that the Philippines must play a huge part in maintaining peace in the region, President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. disclosed that he intends to lay out actions the Association of Southeast Asian Nations can take amid various conflicts.Speaking at the President’s Night organized by the Manila Overseas Press Club at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza in Pasay City on Oct. 5, Marcos bared his intention to make the proposal in future regional meets.
He further said that “if the Philippines can play a part, then that would certainly be a good thing.” “I’m a great a believer in engagement and I think once the lines of communication have closed then any hope of a compromise has ended,” he said. “[I]f Russia uses tactical nuclear weapons in the Ukraine and it becomes acceptable that tactical nuclear weapons are conventional weapon then that might encourage other nuclear powers to think in that direction and to now actually use the unthinkable, start using their nuclear stockpiles,” Marcos said.
