The recent pledges by US President Joe Biden to defend the Philippines from potential threats in the South China Sea are emblematic of the intricate dance of power and politicsN THE tumultuous realm of international affairs, the South China Sea stands as a crucible of geopolitical tension, where promises made and alliances forged often falter in the face of complex realities.
While such assurances may offer a semblance of security, a closer examination reveals a landscape fraught with legal constraints, political calculations, and unresolved tensions.At the heart of the matter lies the question of executive authority and the ability of the US President to unilaterally alter or implement provisions of the Mutual Defense Treaty with the Philippines.
In a political landscape characterized by partisan divides and shifting priorities, the continuity of diplomatic commitments remains tenuous at best. As Biden and his counterparts tout the virtues of multilateral cooperation and joint military exercises, the sobering truth remains: rhetoric alone cannot deter the assertive actions of regional powers.
