PH out of United Nations?

PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte threatened to withdraw the Philippine membership out of the United Nations (U.N) into the middle of criticisms from UN and human rights experts on said to have happened extrajudicial killings in the war on drugs.

“Maybe we’ll just have to decide to separate from the United Nations. If you are that disrespectful, son of a whore, then I will just leave you,” Duterte stated in a press conference in his home, City of Davao.

“Fuck you, UN, you can’t even solve the Middle East carnage… couldn’t even lift a finger in Africa,” he said.

Duterte stated that the United Nations had helped nothing for the Philippines not bypassing the international institution’s poverty reduction programs and massive help especially when typhoons and other natural disasters occurs —as he continued to curse it.

“I don’t give a shit to them. They are the ones interfering,” he added.

Amidst of the threat, Duterte also stated that the UN is always welcome to investigate the proliferating death toll in the war against drugs.

"I will explain extra-judicial killings, for international release, if you want," he said. "My orders are for the police to go out and hunt for criminals. I tell them to arrest these criminals if they surrender peacefully, but kill them if they put up a violent struggle. I assume full responsibility for what happens" He said.

“President Duterte also stated that he will show the statistics of his campaign and to validate the importance of protecting innocent Filipinos. He also said that his campaign encourage law enforcers to shoot criminals to death, rather than be defeated by long winding cases. He also stated that the UN should prepare for his questions after he criticized the international agency's supposed inaction in other global conflicts like the war in Syria.” As CNN reported.
