“That’s how I take it,” Marcos said. “But I’ll be talking to the ambassador soon. And I’m sure he’ll be very anxious to give his own interpretation of what he was trying to say.”
But it was his remarks regarding the welfare of OFWs in Taiwan that prompted a backlash here, particularly among the country’s legislators.However, the Chinese Embassy on Sunday said its ambassador’s remarks advising the Philippines against supporting Taiwan were taken “out of context.”In its statement, the Chinese Embassy noted the “extensive coverage” of Huang’s speech.
“Is it not worrisome that we are adding new sites, and we have started the activities, firing missiles, and whatnot without any document in hand on the terms of the agreement?” she said.Senator Marcos made the statement in reaction to an admission by the country’s top foreign affairs and defense officials that they have not yet forged with the US government the terms of reference for the four new Edca sites.
