President Duterte is turning himself more and more into a fascist dictator at the risk of totally compromising freedom and democracy. The country and our people do not need a strongman, but strong democratic institutions. https://t.co/ycQFfV7P3U

President Duterte cannot washes off his hands on the threats to Catholic Bishop Pablo Virgilio David’s life. After all, no less than him issued threats and statements inciting bystanders to kill bishops who criticize his bloody war on drugs. https://t.co/24hRNveK75

EBF is highly concerned about the state of democracy in the country under President Rodrigo Duterte. Democracy without safeguards for our individual and collective rights is not democracy, for a democracy sans all of these is nothing but tyranny. https://t.co/XgImbyd0Q9

President Duterte has actively instigated and escalated violence. The assassination of NDFP peace consultant Randy Malayao occurred in the backdrop of death threats against human rights advocates and supporters of the communist movement in the country.

The failure to abate the climate of extrajudicial killings and impunity translates to the failure of President Duterte’s government to make institutions of democracy work, and casts doubt on its qualifications to lead the people. https://t.co/A0qQVotzZK
