Philippine military chief rejects coup plots against President Marcos during anti-corruption protests.
Philippine military chief General Romeo Brawner rejected multiple attempts by retired and younger officers to intervene in politics and remove President Ferdinand Marcos amid September anti-corruption protests over alleged fraudulent flood-control projects.
He confirmed that retired officers, including Romeo Poquiz, approached him with proposals for a coup or military junta, but emphasized the armed forces' commitment to the constitution and democratic governance.
Brawner informed Marcos of the plots and stressed that the military would not act outside constitutional bounds, citing past instability after the 1986 ouster of Marcos’ father.
