The League of Filipino Students – UP Diliman and other formations protested against the US Department of National Defense (DND) Sec. Lloyd Austin\u2019s visit to the country, outside Camp Aguinaldo today, February 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US Defense chief arrived in the Philippines last Tuesday, January 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LFS-UPD warned, \u201cAng pagbisitang ito ay pagpapaigting lamang ng presensya ng US sa bansa sa pamamagitan ng mga bilateral na kasunduan sa mga militar ng US at Pilipinas. Pinahihintulutan nito [bilateral agreements] ang mga tropang US na mag-operate at gumamit ng mga lohistika at pasilidad ng AFP [Armed Forces of the Philippines], pati na rin palawakin ang kanilang [US] mga base sa ating di umano’y soberanong lupain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Student Regent Siegfred Severino also calls on all UP student councils to intensify the call against the growing threat of US militarization in the Philippines, in the ongoing 54th General Assembly of Student Council (GASC) today in UP Cebu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US military presence in the country is made possible by the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LFS and other progressive groups call to junk EDCA and eradicate US imperial presence in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
