A political leader named Itos Valdes has expressed his belief that President Bongbong Marcos should place a high priority on addressing the prevalent poverty issues in the Philippines, rather than involving the country in the conflict in Ukraine. Valdes voiced this opinion after the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the Philippines. Zelenskyy extended an invitation to President Marcos to participate in the Global Peace Summit scheduled for June 15th, focusing on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Although President Marcos has confirmed his attendance, Valdes worries that the Philippines is being drawn into the conflict between two nations. Additionally, he criticized Zelenskyy's efforts to secure donations from various countries to support Ukraine in what he views as a futile war.
