In this video, we explore the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) between the U.S. and the Philippines, a vital defense partnership established in 2014. Discover how EDCA strengthens the U.S.-Philippine Mutual Defense Treaty, allowing U.S. forces access to key Philippine military bases for joint training, humanitarian assistance, and disaster response. Learn about the strategic importance of the nine EDCA sites, including the largest one at Basa Air Base, and how they contribute to regional security, particularly in the South China Sea and Taiwan. We also delve into the challenges posed by China's objections and how these sites are critical for national defense and military modernization.
