Philippines gets US military helicopters_我的网站

A | Manila, Oct 21 (UNI) Manila will seek to have at least some of the reported $32m Russian helicopter deal down payment refunded by Moscow.
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr has said his country will source military helicopters from the United States after scrapping a $215m deal to buy 16 similar heavy-lift helicopters from Russia over fears of sanctions following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, reports BBC.
Manila will also seek to have Moscow return at least part of a multimillion-dollar deposit for the now-cancelled batch of Russian Mi-17 helicopters, Marcos Jr said on Thursday, in his first public comments on the touchy issue involving Russia.
“We have secured an alternative supply (for heavy-lift helicopters) from the United States,” Marcos Jr, who was elected president in May, said at a business forum.
“Unfortunately, we made a down payment (to the Russian manufacturer) that we are hoping to negotiate to get at least a percentage of that back,” he said.
“But the deal as it stood maybe at the beginning of or in the middle of last year has already been cancelled.”
On Wednesday, the Russian ambassador to the Philippines, Marat Pavlov, told the local media that his government had not been officially informed of the contract cancellation and considered the helicopter deal valid.
Production continued on fulfilling the order to deliver the Mi-17s, the ambassador said, adding that one had been ready for delivery since June.
The government of Marcos Jr’s predecessor Rodrigo Duterte signed the deal with Moscow in November 2021, but Duterte backed out of the agreement in the months following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February and the imposition of wide-ranging sanctions on Russia.
Marcos did not specify which US helicopters were chosen as the alternative to the Mi-17s, only that they will be manufactured in Poland.
The Philippine ambassador in Washington, Jose Romualdez, told reporters in August that Manila was looking at Chinooks to replace the Mi-17s.
The Boeing CH-47 Chinook could be the possible replacement for the Mi-17s, which the Philippines requires for combat missions, search and rescue, and medical evacuation, the ambassador said at the time.
The US deal – which matched the price agreed with Russia – would also include maintenance services and parts, terms that were not included in the deal with Russia, defence officials told local media organisation GMA News.
UNI MR。 MEXICO CITY -- Five men were killed in a fight between inmates at a prison in Mexico’s Gulf coast state of Tabasco, authorities said Friday.Four of the five inmates killed in the riot late Thursday were on trial or serving sentences for rape, homicide or other violent crimes, the state police department said. Police said control of the prison had been regained, and that nobody else had been injured or escaped. About 16 prisoners were detained in relation with the killings. The police department blamed a “fight between groups” from different cell blocks. But photos and videos apparently made by inmates and posted on social media suggested the dead men may have been killed in retaliation for extorting money from fellow inmates.If confirmed, it would not be the first time that prisons in Mexico have erupted in violence for similar reasons. Inmates who are apparently connected to gangs with members on the outside routinely try to demand protection payments from prisoners. The gangs threaten prisoners or their families with violence to enforce payment demands.In 2022, 56 inmates were injured in a mass brawl at the Apodaca prison, just outside the northern city of Monterrey, which involved complaints that some prisoners were trying to extort money from others.It is part of a broader problem in Mexico in which people still on trial are often held in the same prisons with convicted inmates. Moreover, the poor supervision of many Mexican prisons often allow inmates to essentially control parts of the facilities.。
