Obama was called “whore young.” Now canceling his meeting – Dagbladet.no

(Dagbladet): US President Barack Obama canceling the scheduled meeting with Rodrigo Duterte after being called “whore youth” of the Philippine president, according to several news agencies, including The Associated Press.

The two were scheduled to meet in Laos in the morning during a regional summit.

it was then that Duterte was going to go aboard his plane from Philippines earlier today that the heavy words fell. Duterte was then asked how he would explain the many drug-related killings in the Philippines with him as president if Obama would push him on it.

– You have to show respect, not just rush into question. Your orphans, I will swear to you at the meeting, said Duterte directed against Obama.

2000 murder

More than 2,000 suspected drug offenders have been killed since Duterte took over the presidency in late by June this year. Also, many addicts are put to death.

– I am the president of a sovereign state, and it is long since we stopped being a colony. I have no master except the Filipino people, said Duterte further before he put himself into the plane.

Duterte has made it clear that the United States and President Obama should not interfere in his war on drugs, which the UN believes involving lawless liquidations.

– Clearly, he is a colorful guy, said Obama Dutertes statement, according to the Associated Press. The US president said earlier today before cancellation that he wanted a constructive dialogue with Duterte. But now there is therefore no calls.

UN quarrel

United Nations, the Special Rapporteur for Human Rights, Agnes Callmard, expressed a desire to visit the Philippines to investigate the numerous allegations that police commit extrajudicial liquidations in Dutertes war on drugs.

But in August, was made clear by Dutertes spokesman that she was not wanted.

Duterte said he instead of being part of UN collaboration would like to form a separate organization together with China and other countries. This was interpreted as if he wanted to withdraw from the UN. In an interview with local media a few days later, he said that it was all a joke.

During his campaign promised Duterte killing 100,000 criminals.

it is not the first time the controversial president, known for an exceptionally heavy hand against criminals, flings with lip.

In August called Duterte US ambassador to the Philippines, Philip Goldberg, for “gay.” Also Goldberg was called “a son of a whore” by Duterte, who also made it clear that the US ambassador made him pissed.

Become compared with Trump

In recent days there have appeared rumors that it planned an assassination against Duterte (71), who have gone to war against drug trafficking in the country, writes Reuters. “The war” against drugs and crime has so far claimed over 2,000 lives since he took over power on 30 June.

The many controversial statements have led many to compare him with the Republican presidential candidate in the United States, Donald Trump . International media have given Duterte nickname as “the Philippines’ Trump” and “Duterte Harry” – after Clint Eastwood’s legendary character who took the law into their own hands.

Several have said that sammnelikningen not match precisely because Duterte is very much worse than Trump.
