MANILA, Philippines – A United States envoy dismissed reports on Saturday, November 7, that a framework agreement for the US-backed Pax Silica Economic Security Zone would be signed during the 49th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit in Manila this month.
“No such announcement on the Pax Silica Economic Security Zone was ever planned. Decisions will be made in full consultation with the government of the Philippines at the appropriate time,” US Ambassador to the Philippines Lee Lipton said in a statement.
