Big if true. I expect a lot of malding and liberal hair pulling.

It’s cause he’s trying to court Saudi Arabia, Turkey, UAE, The Philippines and other nations that all hate Israel. It’s opportunistic posturing

Wait, I don't recall the Philippines hating Israel. Isn't it like one of the U.S's major Southeast Asian comprador, collaborator nations?

The government of Philippines is zionist friendly and US comprador, you are right. That doesn't mean its entire population is however. I thought it was there that Zelenskyy started criticizing Israel when questioned by a reporter and calling for peace and a 2 state solution, but it was actually in Singapore at IISS Shangri-La dialogue.

I believe he's trying to improve relations and PR with Asia and Africa overall, so Philippines might not have been the best example for nations that hate Israel. He did visit there separately to court them. There are a lot of them that do hate Israel though such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia and most of Africa.
