The US midrange missile system that was brought into the country in April — and cited by Russian President Vladimir Putin last week — is not leaving the Philippines just yet.
In a message to the Inquirer on Thursday night, Dema-ala said the missile system would remain in the country, without giving a new timetable for its removal.
Speaking on Russian television on Friday last week, Putin said Moscow would resume production of intermediate- and shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles, citing Washington’s deployment of midrange missile systems in the Philippines.
