last year, started ICC a preliminärutredning of extra-judicial killings during the controversial war on drugs that president Rodrigo Dutertes and the government set in.

But the president’s spokesperson, Salvador Panelo, claiming that the Philippines never fully ratified the statute and therefore also can not jump.

”What the us is concerned, is this court is non-existent and its actions are meaningless¥ he writes in a statement.

Many countries – the US, Russia and China – are not in the ICC. The united states made it clear the other day that there may be visa restrictions against persons who are involved in any investigations at the ICC on war crimes in Afghanistan by the military from the U.S. or allied countries.
