 Four countries to watch in 2025

As the US looks inward under President Donald Trump 2.0, the Philippines must look to other like-minded countries to help bolster national security

Donald Trump officially begins his second term as president of the United States on January 20, and the world is bracing itself for what this so-called “isolationist” and “transactional” leader means for US allies.

For the Philippines, which faces an unabated security threat from China in the South China Sea (particularly the swath it refers to as the West Philippine Sea), it means re-appraising its ties with like-minded countries in the region.

In this episode, Rappler editor-at-large Marites Vitug talks about four countries that will play crucial roles in the Philippines’ security landscape starting this year: Australia, Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam. – Rappler.com
