After days of not showing to the public, President Duterte finally gave the media a chance to interview him regarding the serious issues that out nation is dealing with.
He also gave a statement about the opposition of some Maranaos about the airstrike as an attack of the government to the Maute Group which causes their City to breakdown.
“Yung mga traditional political leaders at yung mga
moderate. Yung mga taga Marawi na ayaw nila, yung lugar nila maging waste land,
yun yung mga desperate." President Duterte stated.
He then added that the Maranaos knew about the continuous foreign trade in Marawi but failed to report to the pre-eminent leaders about the suspicious incident.
"But I am not apologizing for anything there because
they brought the problem to themselves. Bakit hindi nila sinabi sa akin, sa
pulis o sa armed forces na may mga foreign trade na pabalik balik na jan. And I
will not (negotiate). If they go to the Maute to talk about what? surrender? o areglo,
ganun na lang? I will not. Paano yung patay ko? How about the murderous rampage
of.. yung mga natamaan ng snipers nila." He emphasized with vexation.
President Duterte also gave a word about the ongoing discussion whether the attack of Maute Group a ground for declaring Martial Law.
"They committed the crime of rebellion and
there is a flag of ISIS. If that is not enough, then what is it?”"
