00:00With the help of President Bongbong Marcos and British Foreign Secretary David Lamy,
00:08the importance of the Philippine-UK Joint Framework Agreement was discussed, which is
00:14centered on the assistance of the two countries to strengthen the defense and maritime security
00:20of the Philippines.
00:21In an exclusive interview with GMA Integrated News, Lamy highlighted the things discussed
00:27by the President, such as the importance of international law, the position of the
00:32Philippines when it comes to Ukraine, and the special relationship between the Philippines
00:37and the United States between the Trump administration's policemen.
00:41Both nations that believe in the rules-based order, and we were reflecting on these tough
00:47geopolitical times, challenges here in the South China Seas, but also the war in Ukraine,
00:54our special relationship with the United States of America, and the powerful people-to-people
01:00links that our countries share.
01:24It's still a possibility, I think, to general talks, but nothing firm yet, but certainly
01:32that could be something in the horizon.
01:39We are committed to maximize the potential of partnership with the United Kingdom on
01:44offshore wind farms in the country.
01:47The Philippines is important because we have powerful people-to-people links.
02:07My daughter, back in going to school in London, her best friend's parents are from the Philippines,
02:14and of course we have many, many Filipino families right across the country, many Filipino
02:20workers right across the country.
