President Rodrigo Roa Duterte is trying to make history as he
has invited Russian President Vladimir Putin to visit the Philippines next year
“as soon as circumstances allow”.
The President sent the invitation through new
Russian Ambassador to the Philippines Marat Ignatyevich Pavlov who was in
Malacañan Palace to present his credentials to the President.
“Next year marks the 45th anniversary of our diplomatic relations.
I take this opportunity to reiterate my invitation to President Vladimir Putin
to visit the Philippines as soon as our circumstances will allow. It will be an
opportunity to celebrate and reaffirm the enduring friendship and cooperation
between our countries,” he said in his speech.

It might be remembered that last October 2019, then
Russian Ambassador Igor Khovaev said Putin had already accepted Duterte’s
invitation.
If Putin pushes through with the visit, it will be his first
visit to Manila.
The Philippine President has been in Russia twice -
in 2017 and 2019.
Duterte also thanked Russia for their offer to provide the
Philippines with doses of their potential vaccine for coronavirus disease 2019
(Covid-19).
“We thank Russia for its offer to supply Sputnik V and share
this technology on vaccine production with the Philippines,” he said.
In the same speech, Duterte said he considers
Russia a “good friend and partner”.
“Over the past few years, we have strengthened
cooperation in defense and security, health, science technology, and the
economy of our countries. We aim for an ever more robust and deeper cooperation
in the coming years,” he said.
