In a move to deter China’s increasing aggression in the region, President Joe Biden has announced a new agreement with the Philippines to ramp up the U.S. military presence in the country.
The agreement, which was reached by both countries, will allow the U.S. to expand its military presence in the Philippines and provide additional support to the country’s armed forces. The U.S. military presence in the Philippines is seen as a way to counter China’s growing influence in the region.
The agreement will include a larger U.S. military presence in the Philippines, including more personnel and resources. It will also provide the Philippines with more access to U.S. military technology and training.
The move is seen as part of a larger effort by the Biden administration to contain China’s expanding influence in the region. The U.S. has already increased its military presence in the South China Sea, as well as in other areas of the Indo-Pacific region, in an effort to counter China’s growing presence.
The agreement between the U.S. and the Philippines is seen as a major step forward in the Biden administration’s goal of containing China’s influence in the region. It is also seen as a way to strengthen the U.S.-Philippines alliance and bolster regional security.
