MANILA - Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has appointed his main political rival, Leni Robredo, his “drugs tsar”, after the opposition leader expressed alarm about the death toll in an anti-narcotics campaign and said it needed a fresh approach.

Duterte’s spokesman said the decision to make Robredo a co-chair of an inter-agency committee against narcotics was genuine and not a cynical move to discredit her. Duterte is furious about a U.N. Human Rights Council resolution in July to investigate the killings. Last year, he withdrew his country’s membership of the International Criminal Court after it launched a preliminary examination into alleged crimes against humanity.

Activists say police are operating with impunity, and with tacit support of a president who once said his drugs war would kill 100,000 people.
