Protesters are blocked by police as they attempt to hold a rally closer to the U.S. Embassy in Manila, Philippines Tuesday, May 27, 2014, to protest the recent agreement between the Philippine and U.S. militaries known as the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA). Civil society groups, including two former senators, who voted to reject the presence of U.S. military bases and its troops in 1991, filed a petition at the Supreme Court on Monday questioning the legality of the new security agreement, which was signed during the state visit by President Barack Obama in late April.
