During his January visits to Beijing and the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, President Marcos said the region was under pressure to pick sides in the superpower rivalry, but preferred not to.
WITH President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. opening up nine bases of the Armed Forces of the Philippines to American forces gearing up for possible war with China over Taiwan, the world's three major regions — Europe, North America and Asia — are now divided into two fiercely armed blocs.On one side is the West, including the United States-led North Atlantic Treaty Organization , plus US allies Japan and Australia.
After decades of limited defense budgets, NATO is deliberating how its armies could be quickly armed and expanded for possible war with Russia, which itself has mobilized Europe's largest army, said to number half a million to 1 million troops.Now that America and its allies are set to redouble forces in Japan, the Philippines, and the seas around China, expect Beijing to accelerate its arms build-up.
