MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. will visit the United States (US) at least twice in 2023, Philippine Ambassador to the US Jose Manuel “Babe” Romualdez said on Friday.
The United States will host the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) meet and the Summit for Democracy, and Marcos plans to attend both events.
INQUIRER.net asked Romualdez in a message if there are finalized dates for the two events, to which he answered: “No dates.”
Assuming the summit and Apec meeting go well, Marcos may pay a state visit to the United States next year.
In September this year, Marcos embarked on a six-day working trip to the US.
The president met with several American business and state leaders. His trip was expected to generate almost $4 billion in investments from multiple sectors.
