U.S. Senator to Panelo: “Our Aid is not a Blank Check”

Democratic United States (US) Senator Patrick Leahy told Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo, "Our aid is not a blank check, and when Philippine officials abuse the justice system for the purpose of political retribution, we have a responsibility to respond."

Leahy is asking for the release of Senator Leila De Lima from Prison, and is one of the Senators who inserted a clause in a Bill to deny entry of any Philippine government official involved in De Lima's imprisonment.

So does the 300 Joint Exercises the U.S. Military has with our armed forces in 2020 have strings attached to it also? This from an ally who refuses to recognize the Philippines’ claims in the South China Sea (SCS) up to now, and who abandoned the PNoy Administration against the Chinese back in 2012?
