Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri is sending his support to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ahead of his departure for an official mission to the United States on April 30, which includes a meeting with U.S. President Joe Biden on May 1.
“I wish our President godspeed on his official mission to the United States this week, and I fully support his endeavor to strengthen ties with our number one ally and trading partner, the United States. In a time where there is so much tension in the region, our nation must look towards our friends who share the values of freedom and democracy as well as respect for each and every nation’s sovereignty,” said Zubiri.
Zubiri, who had recently met with United States Trade Representative Ambassador Katherine Tai to discuss the economic relations between the Philippines and the US, also looks forward to Marcos’ efforts to improve trade ties during his visit.
