Hello, good afternoon.
00:13.6
China will continue whatever investments they choose to make.
00:21.1
This is separate from any proposed or potential Chinese investments in the Philippines.
00:31.3
How do I see how it will affect? I don't see that it will affect one way or the other.
00:42.9
The trilateral agreement is not something that is only out of convenience
00:50.0
or because of the law.
00:51.1
Because there is a new situation.
00:54.4
I really view it as a continuing evolution of our relationship with both countries,
01:05.1
with the U.S. and Japan.
01:09.4
This is evidenced by the fact that a large part of the agreement is on economic proposals
01:19.5
and economic assistance.
01:21.1
Assistance and partnership between the three countries.
01:25.6
Security and defense, of course, is there.
01:28.5
But that is not the main point of the trilateral agreement.
01:36.5
I think the trilateral agreement is extremely important.
01:43.4
It is going to change the dynamic.
01:51.1
The dynamic that we have been seeing in the region, in ASEAN, in Asia, around the South China Sea.
02:04.6
And I think, certainly I think for the better.
02:10.4
I think in the years to come, we will begin to see the wisdom of it.
02:16.7
We will start to see, even actually not even years.
02:21.1
But within the year, we will start to begin to see the wisdom of having the trilateral agreement
02:29.2
and why it is a good thing to enter into.
02:34.6
Sir, the Chinese embassy in Manila confirmed that a gentleman's agreement was reached
02:41.4
during the Duterte administration over the Ayungin Shoal and said that it was still followed
02:48.8
during the early days of your administration.
02:51.7
Your reaction to this?
02:53.8
And have you been briefed about this said gentleman's agreement?
02:58.5
The government or chancellor, would you be willing to sit down with him and go over things with him?
03:02.8
With the confirmation of the Chinese embassy, we now know that there was a secret agreement.
03:09.7
Now, this is the second question that I have is, what is contained in that secret agreement?
03:16.6
The Chinese administration shares a lot of similarities with that.
03:21.1
Whatever foreign policy we undertook vis-a-vis South China Sea, West Philippine Sea,
03:26.9
was just continuing our foreign policy of maintaining the peace and promoting the national interest.
03:35.2
The secret agreement, gentlemanly or otherwise, we were not informed about.
03:48.8
So, you should, can you please, I ask members of all our media,
03:56.8
can you go to the former officials in the Duterte administration and ask them,
04:04.4
who were the cabinet secretaries, who knows about this, what was the process that happened?
04:11.0
How confident are we that we would...
04:13.8
Yeah, so, yeah, go, go, talk to the former officials and see what they have.
04:18.8
I don't know what to say. I can't get a straight answer out of any of them.
04:25.1
Do you agree with former President Duterte's comment that along the way you will be political enemies
04:31.1
and you can remove that kind of situation?
04:34.4
That's his view. I don't consider him a political enemy.
04:37.9
Takes two to tango. I don't consider him a political enemy.
04:48.8
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
04:50.1
You're a good man.
