Marcos on Firstpost: President on ASEAN, Indo-Pacific & Need for an Asian NATO | Palki Sharma | N18G

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said that while ASEAN serves the purpose of its member states, it may no longer be "enough" to serve the entire Indo-Pacific region. Asked, in an exclusive interview with Firstpost Managing Editor Palki Sharma, if there needs to be an Asian NATO for the Indo-Pacific, he said: "The war all around the world, and now the impending trade war — these are all global instabilities. These are all usually global forces, and therefore need a global solution which cannot be provided by one country or even a small group of countries." He added a coalition of like-minded states is needed to maintain peace in the region.
