FILE - In this Jan. 25, 2017 file photo, Philippine Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana speaks to reporters on the sidelines of the Exercise Coordinated Response (Ex COORES), a multinational Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief table-top exercise with participants from militaries from the Asia-Pacific region, and observers from international, governmental and non-governmental organizations, in Singapore. The Philippines, the only U.S. defense treaty ally among the six claimants in the South China Sea, said the U.S. military will soon commence construction of facilities to accommodate troops and equipment inside Philippine army bases. China has criticized the U.S. military presence in the Philippines.
