Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III thinks the Supreme Court will side with the Senate in the issue of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) abrogation. | KHallareINQ

“We’re optimistic that the Supreme Court will agree with the Senate that we must be asked to concur in case of abrogation,” the Senate President said during the In Focus Forum in Quezon City.“If that happens, it does not necessarily deny or not concur with the President, or it does not automatically mean also that we will agree with the President,” Sotto added.

Sotto earlier revealed that he and Senators Franklin Drilon, Richard Gordon, and Panfilo “Ping” Lacson were planning to contest before the Supreme Court the VFA abrogation as it was implemented without Senate concurrence.
