“Philippines Will Continue To Cooperate With ICC” — Malacañang

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Despite public pronouncements to the contrary, Malacañang today clarified with certainty that the Philippines will continue to fully cooperate with the ICC.

Government pronouncements came in the wake of the rejection by the ICC Appeals Chamber of the Philippines’ petition for the International Criminal Court to stop the resumption of its investigation on the country’s war on drugs.

In a Messenger chat with President Bongbong Marcos, the Adobo Chronicles asked if that would mean ICC prosecutors will now be allowed to enter the Philippines to conduct the investigation.

Marcos replied, “No, no, no. We’re not talking about the International Criminal Court. Rather, the International Chamber of Commerce. It’s all part of our overall program to support our country’s commercial endeavors and relationship with the international business community.”

Crystal clear.

Former Australian Senator Calls Leni Robredo A ‘Liar!’

SYDNEY, Australia (The Adobo Chronicles, Sydney Bureau) – Lee Rhiannon, member of the International Observer Mission (IOM) and former Member of the Australian Senate, Australian Greens, today called Atty. Leni Robredo a “liar.”

Rhiannon was reacting to a recent admission by Robredo that her legal and computer teams found no evidence that the former Vice President was cheated during the 2022 Philippine presidential elections.

On the contrary, the Australian observer maintained that “the evidence is overwhelming. . .that Marcos, Jr. and Sarah (sic) Duterte were not legitimately elected.”

Bongbong Marcos won the election overwhelmingly, garnering 31 Million votes compared to Robredo’s 15 Million.

HERE is an interview with the Aussie where she offered no specific evidence of her and IOM’s conclusion.
