00:00Benigan din ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ang pag-iral ng pulisiyan na protektaan ang ating teritoryo at soberenya nang hindi nagdudulot ng gulo.
00:10Idayagyan ng Pangulo na ang pangunahan niya ang Mid-Year Command Conference ng AFP kahapon, si Patrick De Jesus sa Sentro ng Balita.
00:19Mismong si Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ang nanguna sa 2025 Mid-Year Command Conference ng Armed Forces of the Philippines sa Camp Aguinaldo.
00:30Dumalo rin si Defense Sekretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. at AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo Browner Jr.
00:36Kung saan natalakay kasama ang iba pang opisyal ang mga nagpapatuloy na operasyon at tagumpay ng hukbong sandatahan.
00:43Binigyang di hindi ng Commander-in-Chief ang kanyang pulisiya na protektahan ang teritoryo at soberenya ng Pilipinas sa paraang hindi nag-uudyok ng gulo.
00:54If I may paraphrase the Commander-in-Chief in the Command Conference this morning, when he mentioned, and I state, we have no desire to attack anyone.
01:04On the other hand, your armed forces has every desire to ensure the integrity of the national territory.
01:13We have every desire to protect our sovereignty and our sovereign rights.
01:19Kaugnay nito, bumuelta ang AFP sa mga nagsasabing ginagawa lamang na launching pad ng Pilipinas at isang pyesa sa iduwaan ng mga higanting bansa,
01:29kung saan mga ganitong pahayag ay nanggaling pa sa ilang retiradong general ng militar.
01:34On being turned into another Ukraine, these statements are defeatist and alarmist.
01:43They send a wrong message especially to the Filipino people and even to the former men and women of the armed forces who served under these retired senior officers.
01:55Panawagan ng AFP sa kanilang mga dating miyembro maging responsable sa mga ganitong klase ng pahayag, lalo na sa usapin ng West Philippine Sea.
02:05There are still a few mouthpieces in the Philippines, Filipino mouthpieces, that have been speaking out the discourse or the narrative of the Chinese Communist Party.
02:15This is very unbecoming of a Filipino. Freedom of expression must be based on truth, it must be based on fact, it must be based on the national interest.
02:25Iginit ding muli ng AFP na walang sino mang dayuhan ang nagdidikta sa ating mga hakbang at ang mga aktibidad kasama ang ibang bansa ay pagpapakita ng kanilang pakikisa sa Pilipinas.
02:38We will not be dictated by any foreign power, by any country, not even the United States of America.
02:46Their support for us, the support of other European powers, of other countries for the Philippine stand on the West Philippine Sea,
02:53is based on shared values for freedom of navigation, for international law, and for sovereignty and sovereign rights.
