Marcos is scheduled to meet with Trump in Washington, D.C. on July 20, marking the first-ever meeting between a sitting ASEAN head of state and the former U.S. president.

“During the visit, the two leaders will discuss closer cooperation in economic, defense and security matters of common interest. As you are all aware, the President’s official visit also aims to address the US tariff proposed to be levied on Philippine exports,” said Department of Foreign Affairs Assistant Secretary Raquel Solano in a Palace briefing on Friday, July 18.

“The two presidents are also expected to discuss regional and international issues of common concern and how to further strengthen people-to-people ties,” she added.
