MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 President Rodrigo R. Duterte on Wednesday told the United States that the Philippines will no longer participate in its wars and expeditions, \u201cat least during my time\u201d.<\/p>\n

Duterte made this remark during the 39th commencement exercises for Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) \u201cMaragtas\u201d Class of 2018 in Silang, Cavite.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m addressing America right now, whatever expeditions that you will conduct, any wars that you will fight in any other countries, count us out,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n

Duterte said the Philippines did not get anything from \u201call these years of sacrifice except brutality and agony\u201d from the US.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will stand on our own though we have no money,\u201d the Chief Executive said, adding in jest that he will just order the printing of money and give five sacks to each Filipino.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will never beg for any help. Sometimes it would mean really the dignity of the people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The President said Filipinos have been enslaved by two countries in succession \u2013 the Spaniards, for 400 years, and the Americans for 50 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s enough. You have had your fill, do not ask for more,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n

He said the US stole the Philippines\u2019 natural resources and the oils of the Arab countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf that\u2019s the case, unless we are threatened directly, there will be no more joint expeditions, at least during my time. You all have to wait until I\u2019m gone,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n

It was not the first time that Duterte hurled these kinds of remarks against the Philippines\u2019 longtime ally for its “interference” in the country’s domestic affairs.<\/p>\n

In 2016, Duterte had repeatedly slammed former US President Barack Obama for interfering in such government campaign as the war on drugs.<\/p>\n

Duterte had even threatened to terminate the Philippines-US Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Despite criticisms from international and local human groups, Duterte promised to continue his war on drugs and vowed to kill those who will destroy the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not mess up with drugs because I will really kill you,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Duterte criticized several human rights groups for drumming up the number of drug suspects killed by law enforcers but not that of policemen killed in action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
