BRUSSELS 30 April 2025 – Ambassador Jaime Victor B. Ledda engaged doctoral studies scholars of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) in an interactive discussion on Indo-Pacific security partnerships at the German foundation’s European Office in Brussels on 30 April 2025.
The group of scholarship holders who come from diverse backgrounds were visiting Brussels as part of a week-long program by the KAS Multinational Development Policy Dialogue focusing on European Union (EU) partnerships in the Indo-Pacific covering security, trade and climate.
In his remarks, Ambassador Ledda emphasized PH’s commitment to upholding the rules-based international order, international law and multilateralism as linchpins of a peaceful, stable and prosperous Indo-Pacific. He cited in particular PH’s efforts in the maritime space, including adherence to UNCLOS, the issuance of the 2016 Arbitral Award on the South China Sea, and close cooperation with like-minded stakeholders such as the EU on enhancing maritime security. Ambassador Ledda also underscored that PH intends to play the role of champion of the rule of law, bridge-builder and voice of the developing world when it secures a seat at the UN Security Council.
