VOICED : Filipinas pondra fin a ejercicios militares con EEUU

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte announced the end of joint military exercises with the US, marking a shift in the country's defense strategy. This decision follows Duterte's previous actions that have strained relations with the US, including his insults towards former President Obama. Despite the historical defense ties between Manila and Washington dating back to 1951, Duterte is now focusing on strengthening regional ties within Southeast Asia. He plans to visit Vietnam to discuss maritime freedom and enhance economic and military relations.
