President #Duterte decision on VFA hinges on Filipinos’ welfare

President Rodrigo Roa Duterte will decide on the fate of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) with the national interest and welfare of #Filipinos in mind.
Senator Christopher “Bong” Go said whatever decision the President will come up with should be respected.

The VFA with the United States is a deal to allow the presence of military forces in the #Philippines for military exercises with local troops and humanitarian missions.
An important clause states that US military courts will have jurisdiction over crimes committed by its members as long as they are part of official duties.

Go said President #Duterte, as chief architect of foreign policy, has the prerogative to make decisions for the country.
