Apoyamos a Filipinas contra cualquier intimidaci\u00f3n o coerci\u00f3n, incluso en el Mar de China Meridional, y para preservar una regi\u00f3n que se rige por el estado de derecho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSi bien nuestras dos naciones han trabajado juntas para promover la paz y la estabilidad, incluso en el marco del Acuerdo de Cooperaci\u00f3n de Defensa Mejorada, escucho regularmente de organizaciones e individuos que aquellos que defienden los derechos humanos, incluidos los derechos laborales, ambientales e ind\u00edgenas, contin\u00faan siendo atacados y silenciado a pesar del cambio de liderazgo del presidente Duterte al presidente Marcos Jr. el a\u00f1o pasado. Esto incluye el caso de Alex Dolorosa, un organizador y asistente legal que fue encontrado muerto recientemente despu\u00e9s de a\u00f1os de vigilancia, y el caso persistente del defensor ambiental Brandon Lee, quien fue baleado y paralizado por las fuerzas estatales en 2019. La Administraci\u00f3n de Marcos a\u00fan tiene que traer los perpetradores a la justicia. Esta represi\u00f3n se extiende incluso a otros l\u00edderes electos: la senadora filipina Leila De Lima sigue encarcelada injustamente despu\u00e9s de seis a\u00f1os por cargos de motivaci\u00f3n pol\u00edtica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHago un llamado al presidente Biden y al presidente Marcos para que utilicen su tiempo juntos en Washington para garantizar que la democracia y los derechos humanos se fortalezcan junto con otros aspectos de la relaci\u00f3n entre Estados Unidos y Filipinas. En particular, trabajar juntos para reformar el sistema judicial ser\u00e1 fundamental para garantizar que aquellos que han cometido abusos atroces contra los derechos humanos rindan cuentas\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de la elecci\u00f3n del presidente Marcos, Merkley se uni\u00f3 a sus colegas en&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.merkley.senate.gov\/es\/news\/press-releases\/merkley-markey-leahy-cardin-wyden-and-booker-urge-support-for-human-rights-and-democracy-following-philippines-election\/\">instando a la Administraci\u00f3n Biden a restablecer la relaci\u00f3n entre Estados Unidos y Filipinas<\/a>&nbsp;con un fuerte enfoque en la protecci\u00f3n de los derechos humanos y la democracia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">###<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wednesday, May 3, 2023 Washington, D.C. \u2013 Today, Oregon\u2019s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley \u2013 a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee \u2013 issued the following statement on the visit of Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to the United States: \u201cThe Philippines is the United States\u2019 oldest ally in the Indo-Pacific.
