The Philippines even wants to scrap the VFA. I mean its like a suicidal person cutting all ties, going it alone and walking into the wilderness full of nasty things unarmed with no friends saying I don't need anyone. Bad countries are like lions, they smell weakness and the weak die to make room for the strong.
The Government of the Philippines will negotiate the Spartly's for money then blame the U.S. because they had no other choice.
