The president of the United States, Donald Trump, has arrived today in the Philippine capital of Manila, which is the final halt to his 13 - day tour of Asia.
President Trump in Manila will stay until the day after tomorrow to attend the summit of Southeast Asian Countries Association leaders (ASEAN).
Hours before arriving in Manila, special Filipino police used water cannons to prevent hundreds of anti - American protesters from approaching the U.S. Embassy.
Earlier in Vietnam, President Trump attended the Asia-Peaceful Economic Co-operation Summit (APEC), during which he had a brief meeting with Russia's president, Vladimir Putin.
The American President Donald Trump's Asian tour of Japan, China, and South Korea was aimed at strengthening diplomatic and economic ties until efforts are under way to counter the atomic threat from North Korea.
In Vietnam he has offered to mediate in the dispute over claims on the Chinese South Sea, which has long caused tensions in this region.
