What the President decided was to merely change the notice of the VFA termination period from the original March to August 2020 to June to November 2020, with a possible extension of another six months. In fact, Palace spokesman Harry Roque had already confirmed that only the termination date of the agreement has been changed. “When it comes to the VFA, what was suspended was the process of termination. To begin with, what he said about “a man who does not change his mind cannot change anything” is awfully fallacious. I would rather wait before the end of the revised termination period for the VFA in November.
