US, Philippines Sign Military Intel Pact in Manila to Counter China
Nov 18, 2024, 09:11 AM
The United States and the Philippines have signed a military intelligence-sharing deal on Monday, November 18, aimed at deepening defense ties between the two nations. The agreement provides a legal framework for real-time information sharing and technology cooperation, enhancing their ability to counter regional security challenges, particularly Chinese influence. The deal was signed by U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and the Philippine defense chief in Manila, marking a significant step in their long-standing treaty alliance. This move comes as part of broader U.S. efforts to strengthen military technology partnerships in the Asia-Pacific region, including with Japan and Australia. The agreement allows for the sharing of classified military information and technology, and comes just two months before Donald Trump assumes the presidency.
