00:00 The Armed Forces of the Philippines denied the joint patrol of the United States and the Philippines
00:05 that the tensions in the West Philippine Sea are serious.
00:08 This was followed by the sighting of several aircrafts and ships of China in the middle of the joint patrol.
00:12 This is the news of June Veneration.
00:15 Following the flight of the fighter jets of the Philippines and the United States in the West Philippine Sea
00:23 as a symbol of their joint sea and air patrol,
00:26 the P-8 Poseidon surveillance aircraft of the US Navy flew
00:31 with several media to serve as an eye in the sky.
00:34 From the top of 10,000 feet, the aircraft observed the two warships of the United States
00:40 and the next ship of the Philippines.
00:43 A Chinese frigate that flew to the US ships at a distance of 5 miles
00:50 and was inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines was also seen from here.
00:53 But it seems that the surveillance aircraft of the US was hit by a Chinese aircraft
00:59 that seemed to be using air and sea assets in the joint patrol.
01:03 Aside from that, there was no radio challenge or other aggressive actions that China usually does.
01:20 Aside from surveillance, the P-8 Poseidon can also detect submarines under the sea
01:25 using a high-tech camera that can zoom even from a distance.
01:29 This is the same surveillance plane of the US that was seen in their resupply mission to the Philippines in Eugene Shoal
01:35 and witnessed the Chinese ships blocking the Philippine ships and the use of water cannons.
01:42 After almost 4 hours of aerial surveillance, the P-8 Poseidon returned to Clark Air Base.
01:48 All mission objectives were met today.
01:51 We got out and conducted our normal routine patrol of the area.
01:57 Happy to announce it was a mission success.
01:59 President Bongbong Marcos said earlier that the situation in the West Philippine Sea is serious
02:05 and that cooperation between the Philippines and its allies like the United States is needed.
02:11 These combined maritime activities between the US and the Philippines
02:15 and the added assets of the air assets just greatly enhances the evolution of our alliance.
02:22 The AFP clarified that the joint maritime activity was not intended to increase tensions in the West Philippine Sea
02:28 but to strengthen the sovereign rights of the Philippines.
02:32 The National Economic and Development Authority, or NEDA, believes that the joint patrol can help the economy.
02:38 The world trade is very much dependent on peace and especially on navigation.
02:46 And so, I think as we contribute in our region to getting that stability,
02:54 trades will be promoted.
