President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the Philippines will no longer get involved with the International Criminal Court after it rejected the government’s request to suspend its investigation into the Duterte administration’s bloody war on drugs that took the lives of thousands of suspects.
The ICC said this means the prosecutor may proceed with the investigation while the Appeals Chamber considers Manila’s main appeal against the probe.Mr. Marcos maintained that the government will not cooperate with the international body’s investigation. “It is an indictment against our entire legal and judicial system, and it encroaches on our sovereignty as an independent and law-abiding nation.”
In February, Marcos said he would not cooperate with the ICC inquiry into the abuses during the previous administration’s war on drugs. Senator Francis Tolentino on Tuesday said the appeal made by the Philippines was a courteous assertion of the country’s sovereignty.“It will not clothe the International Criminal Court with jurisdiction, as there was none in the first place,” Tolentino said.
