China has declared a \u201cnature reserve\u201d at Scarborough Shoal \u2014 a move the Philippines calls unacceptable \u2014 while questions remain over how to avoid having Manila&#8217;s red lines crossed, triggering the Mutual Defense Treaty with the United States. Lazaro explains how Manila views Taiwan contingency planning while the Philippines continues to recognize the One-China policy, and whether ASEAN can deliver unity when the Philippines assumes chairmanship in 2026. She also addresses corruption pressures at home and how the government is working to protect Filipino migrants and seafarers caught in the US immigration crackdown.<\/p>\n<p>#Philippines #SouthChinaSea #Scarboroughshoal<br \/>\nFor more news go to: http:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/<\/p>\n<p>Follow DW on social media:<br \/>\n\u25baInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/deutschewellenews\/<br \/>\n\u25baTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/dwnews<\/p>\n<p>F\u00fcr Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/dwdeutsch<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As clashes in the South China Sea continue to escalate, DW&#8217;s Janelle Dumalaon sat down with Philippines Foreign Secretary Tess Lazaro for an in-depth interview on Manila\u2019s foreign policy at a critical moment.
