President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. concluded his working visit to Germany, which aimed to strengthen economic and cooperative ties.

During his visit, Marcos and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz discussed common interests including defense, labor, climate change, business, and trade.

The two leaders witnessed the signing of government-to-government agreements, including a Joint Declaration of Intent on Strengthening Maritime Cooperation.

The presidential delegation secured at least US$4 billion worth of investments during the trip to Germany.

Marcos has since departed for Prague, Czech Republic, for the next leg of his trip, and is expected to return to Manila on Saturday.

While in Prague, Marcos will meet Czech Republic President Petr Pavel and other constitutional heads, and a Joint Communiqué on labor mechanisms is expected to be signed.
