Defensor Raises Duterte ICC Case and Marcos Corruption Issues

Former congressman Mike Defensor outlines concerns over the handling of the International Criminal Court case involving Rodrigo Duterte, questioning why proceedings were not pursued within domestic courts. He compares this with past legal actions against Joseph Estrada and Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, both of whom faced trial in the Philippines.

The discussion also examines allegations of systemic corruption linked to figures within the current administration of Ferdinand Marcos Jr., including claims involving legislative budget processes and executive oversight. Defensor points to the need for broader investigations that include both legislative and executive branches, emphasizing accountability and institutional transparency amid rising public scrutiny.
