According to Olalia, the government challenged the concerns raised by Aoláin and said that her suggestions “merit a more serious thought and debate, to ask in particular, if these concerns can hold their weight against realities on the ground.”In her report, Aoláin concluded that many violent extremism prevention programs worldwide were directly contributing to human rights violations. She added that such extreme reactions could even foster radicalization instead of preventing it.
Aoláin then recommended that the UN review its entire counterterrorism architecture to better protect human rights and the rule of law. Olalia pointed out that said recommendations were not even addressed to the Philippines in particular, but the Duterte government’s defensiveness was an indication of guilt.
“Because the entire world now sees the many thousands of dead bodies on Philippine streets killed by the so-called war against illegal drugs and disapproves official hate speech and reprisals against critics and dissenters, it is apparent that the Duterte administration has chosen that the best defense is an offense in the UN,” Olalia said.
In his speech before the UN Human Rights Council, Olalia also enjoined UN member states to closely monitor the human rights situation in the Philippines, particularly lawyers like himself.
