RT | The President of the Philippines Rodrigo Duterte, has threatened
that the country could leave the UN, after the organization urged the
Philippines to stop executing and killing people linked to drug business
and threatened that “state actors” could be punished.
"I do not want to insult you, but maybe we'll just have to decide to separate from the United Nations," Rodrigo Duterte told journalists on Sunday. "Why do you have to listen to this stupid?"
“I don't give a sh*t about them,” he added. “They are the ones interfering. You do not just go out and give a sh*tting statement against a country.”
Calling the UN “inutile",
Duterte said the Philippines could invite China, African nations and
other countries to create a rival international body. He went further,
slamming the UN’s response to other global issues.
“Look at the iconic boy that was taken out from the rubble and he was made to sit in the ambulance and we saw it," Duterte said. The picture of Omran Daqneesh, a five-year-old Syrian boy has recently gone viral around the globe.
"Why
is it that [the] United States is not doing anything? I do not read
you. Anybody in that stupid body complaining about the stench there of
death?"
The Philippine leader also attacked the US for more members of the public dying as a result of police violence.
"What do you think the Americans did to the black people there? Is that not rubbing off also? And (critics) say what?"
The
angry tirade at the news conference in Davao City came after the UN’s
special rapporteur on summary executions, Agnes Callamard, urged the
Philippines to stop extrajudicial executions and killings, saying “state actors” could be punished for the “illegal killings.”
