  • Philippines’ President Rodrigo Duterte slammed the International Criminal Court, who are leading an investigation into his bloody war on drugs, as it is part of the “white idiots in the EU.”
  • Duterte urged other nations to “get out” of their membership with the ICC because it is a “rude” organization. 
  • The ICC began an examination last month into deaths linked to Duterte’s war on drugs, which, by some estimates, has killed more than 12,000 people.

Philippines’ President Rodrigo Duterte on Sunday slammed the International Criminal Court (ICC), who are leading an investigation into his bloody war on drugs, as it is part of the “white idiots in the EU.”

Speaking at the Philippine Military Academy, Duterte said that the Rome Statute, which established the ICC, was “bull,” and contributed to his decision to formally withdraw from the organization last week, though the withdrawal will only take effect one year after the request.
