The Philippine Star
|February 17, 2025
The Philippines and the United States discussed the value of the two countries' development work, in the wake of the Trump administration's order freezing US foreign aid.
The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said yesterday the foreign aid freeze, which is under a 90-day review, was discussed during a meeting between Foreign Affairs Secretary Enrique Manalo and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Feb. 14.
"Both Secretaries discussed the value of our development cooperation work. We also recognize, however, that the new US administration is still in the process of completing the review of the work of various development agencies," DFA spokesperson Ma. Teresita Daza said in a statement.
