00:00Navrotsky. Excellencies, distinguished guests, this concludes. President Marcos and President
00:06Navrotsky will now witness the signing of the agreement between the Republic of the Philippines
00:11and the Honorable Frederick A. Vida, Acting Secretary of Justice, and the Honorable
00:16At this point, may we invite His Excellency Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. The agreement on
00:21mutual legal assistance in criminal matters will strengthen cooperation between the Philippines
00:27and Poland in preventing and combating crime.
00:44Maybe, what's next in terms of Poland-Philippine Defense Partnership?
00:49Well, change the status quo via coercive actions and the use of force.
00:54It is my honor and pleasure to welcome His Excellency, President Navrotsky, today in Malacanang
01:00Palas, the very first Polish president to visit us here in the Philippines. President Navrotsky's
01:07historic visit marks an important milestone in the growing partnership between the Philippines
01:12and Poland and sustains the momentum of recent high-level exchanges. During our bilateral meeting
01:19this afternoon, President Navrotsky and I discussed our country's ongoing and prospective cooperation
01:25in areas such as defense and security, trade, industry, agriculture, science and technology,
01:34ICT, energy, legal cooperation, and people-to-people connection. We welcomed in particular the steady
01:41progress in Philippines-Poland defense cooperation, which includes our acquisition of S-70 Black Hawk Combat
01:48Utility Helicopters from Poland as part of the modernization program of the Armed Forces of the Philippines.
01:55We look forward to building on the outcomes of the inaugural Philippines-Poland Joint Defense
02:01Cooperation Committee, including through joint training and educational opportunities.
02:07We'll see you in the next few weeks.
