The last remarks of President Duterte’s spokesperson Harry Roque on the matter of his speaking on matters of international law did not seem to be the last of it, after all.

“What history can do is try to cover up wrong with the sands of time but the people wronged can keep brushing away the sand to show the wrong. Time cannot make wrong right even if the people wronged are enslaved or exterminated by the wrongdoer. But wrong is still not right. It is just history. The history of wrong,” he went on.

Locsin then unleashed a series of tweets apparently chiding Roque, asserting that DFA “has exclusive remit” on Philippine foreign relations and also telling the presidential spokesman to “drop the subject” and leave the matter to the DFA.

Roque under fire for erroneously claiming Julian Felipe Reef not part of PH EEZThe Philippines' top diplomat and several senators are calling out Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque for his erroneous claims about the country's Exclusive Economic Zone. Roque will always be non-essential. cancelroque This is what happened to a person who tries to outsmart himself of nonsense talks just to be said he knew something we don’t know! A kind of person who talks without thinking. Roque doesn’t uses what talent God gave him, but to be dictated by another fool person that is useless!
