MANILA, Philippines — US Vice President Kamala Harris is slated to meet separately with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte when she visits the Philippines next week, US Embassy spokesperson Kanishka Gangopadhyay confirmed to Philstar.com Wednesday.

 

In a background briefing, Harris' office said that the US Vice President was scheduled to meet with Marcos Jr. and Duterte from November 20 to 22 before traveling to Palawan in a historic visit to demonstrate America’s commitment to the rule of law in the South China Sea. Palawan is also in close proximity to the disputed Spratly Islands in the South China Sea. 

 

The visit marks the first time in five years that a top White House official came to the Philippines since then-US President Donald Trump visited the country in 2017.
