MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Imee Marcos has urged her brother President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to discuss in his nearing meet with United States President Joe Biden new terms and conditions should Manila and Washington extend the initial 10-year term of their Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (Edca). Sen. Marcos, head of the Senate foreign relations panel, on Tuesday said she has not spoken to her brother about his meeting with Biden in the US next week. But if there's anything she hopes for President Marcos to raise before his US counterpart, it would be the possible renewal of the 2014 Edca, which is only effective for an initial period of 10 years.
