00:00 President Bombo Marcos defended the violation of the Philippine Constitution in the International Criminal Court
00:06 in the middle of its investigation in the Warren Drugs Administration of Duterte.
00:10 In the other hand, the Supreme Court's decision in 2021
00:14 that the allegations of the Philippine ICC investigation were in the clout
00:17 of the Philippine ICC's investigations.
00:25 We continue to defend the sovereignty of the Philippines
00:33 and continue to question the jurisdiction of the ICC and their investigations here in the Philippines.
00:39 They are talking about Filipinos, their alleged crimes are here in the Philippines,
00:43 the victims are Filipino, why are they going to the clout?
00:47 At the same time, Superadjutant DZ Double B and Solicitor General Menado Guevara
00:54 said that the government will focus on the investigation and prosecution
00:58 if there is abuse in the Duterte drug war.
01:01 And if the police are complaining, they can approach the Justice Department,
01:05 NBI or the Public Attorney's Office.
01:08 The International Organization of Human Rights Watch reminds that
01:11 in Article 127 of the Rome Statute, the Philippines still has a responsibility
01:16 to assist in the investigation of the ICC even if we are no longer a member of the ICC.
01:22 It is hoped that the Philippines will reconsider its disengagement from the ICC
01:26 because the international community's view on the country is affected.
01:30 According to Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla,
01:34 the government's ears are still open on the ICC even if the Philippines has ended its involvement
01:40 in the alleged court.
01:42 But the country's decision to enter the country is not yet accepted.
