The Philippines were intent to squirm out from under the protection provided by the United States.

Too bad for them there is a hungry wolf in the neighborhood; one that understands that with Biden in control the U.S. could not help the Philippines if they wanted.

"The Philippines were intent to squirm out from under the protection provided by the United States."

My opinion hasn't changed about this since the early 1990's. The Philippine Government very stupidly cancelled military base agreements. The wolf is at the door indeed.
