The political alliance between President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte, known as the UniTeam, has dissolved, ending their collaboration that began during the 2022 presidential campaign.
Vice President Duterte resigned from her Cabinet positions in July 2024, citing differences in governance and policy direction.
Subsequent public statements from both leaders have highlighted their diverging views on various national issues, including foreign policy and domestic governance.
This separation marks a significant shift in Philippine politics, as the UniTeam was initially formed to consolidate support across the nation.
Analysts suggest that the dissolution may lead to a realignment of political alliances ahead of future elections.
