US Ambassador to the Philippines MaryKay Carlson lauded the success of Balikatan 2024 , the Philippine-US joint military exercise, emphasizing the importance of the alliance between the two countries.“As we have heard both and say, security and economic prosperity are inextricably linked - nowhere is that more apparent than in the vitally important Indo-Pacific region,” said Carlson during the closing ceremony of the three-week Balikatan Exercises on Friday.
Carlson said that she was “proud of numerous images showcasing Balikatan participants engaging in a wide range of knowledge and expertise sharing exercises from tactical operations to strategic maneuvers.” Among the highlights of the exercise was its first-ever multilateral maritime drill in the West Philippine Sea by servicemen from the Philippines, US, and France. Participants also joined in maritime strikes and live fire exercises in Ilocos Norte.
