Tolentino said that while he believes in upholding the 2016 Hague Arbitral Ruling, which affirms the country’s sovereignty over the West Philippine Sea, and in strengthening the alliance of the Philippines with its allies and supporters, the party is inclined toward bilateral dialogue on the matter.
