He reaffirmed the Philippines’ stance behind the 2016 international ruling rejecting China’s territorial assertions, declaring Filipinos won’t back down. Domestically, he announced charges against his cousin, former House Speaker, in a corruption probe, stressing justice must prevail—even for family. With assets already seized and investigations ongoing, Marcos Jr. signaled unwavering commitment to defending national sovereignty and upholding the rule of law, both abroad and at home.
