Though we do not agree
with the foul mouth of Rodrigo Duterte, he was quite honest in standing up for
his country:
Philippines'
Duterte unleashes more profanity at the EU
Angry at European denunciations over his
bloody drug crackdown, Philippine president tells the Union where to go.

September 2016
Manila,
Philippines - President Rodrigo Duterte has unleashed a series
of expletives against the European Union after its parliament called on the
Philippine government to "put an end" to the killings of drug
suspects.
Member
countries of the European Union last week called for strict monitoring of human
rights abuses in the Philippines following public statements by Duterte on his
"war on drugs".
Since June 30
when Duterte took office, more than 3,500 people have been killed in police
operations and attacks by unidentified assailants.
"I
have read the condemnation of the European Union. I'm telling them, 'F**k
you,'" Duterte said in a mix of Filipino and English
during a speech to local businessmen in his hometown of Davao City on Tuesday
(20 September 2016).
Describing
the EU as hypocrites, Duterte said the grouping "has the gall to condemn
me" despite historical records showing what member countries, such as
France and Britain, have done in the Middle East.
He said the
EU is trying to "atone" for its sins and "guilt feelings"
over occupying other countries in the past.
"I
repeat it, 'F**k you!'," Duterte said as he raised his right hand and gave
a middle finger to applause from the audience.
The EU had
urged the Philippine government to investigate abuses "in full compliance
with national and international obligations and respect for human rights".
"President
Duterte repeatedly urged law enforcement agencies and the public to kill
suspected drug traffickers who did not surrender, as well as drug users,"
the EU politicians said in a resolution.
"President
Duterte publicly stated he would not pursue law enforcement officers and
citizens who killed drug dealers who resisted arrest."
Earlier this
month, Duterte directed profanities at UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and US
President Barack Obama, after they made similar comments about the mounting
death toll in the Philippines.
Duterte later
apologised for calling Obama "a son of a
whore".
