Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos' visit"will focus on an in-depth exchange of views on bilateral relations and regional and international issues of common concern", China's foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin says.
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. flew to China for a three-day state visit, saying he looks forward to his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping as they work to boost bilateral ties. “I look forward to my meeting with President Xi as we work towards shifting the trajectory of our relations to a higher gear that would hopefully bring numerous prospects and abundant opportunities for peace and development to the peoples of both our countries,” he added.
Last week, a Philippine foreign ministry official said talks with Xi would include China's actions in the South China Sea.
