“We will maintain our cooperation… The respect should be there and in all matters that would affect our two countries, especially the treaties that we signed, with them, in the so many agreements. It will be honored, all of these things,” dagdag niya.
Binati ni Duterte si Trump sa panalo nito. Gayunman, isinantabi ang pagkukumpara sa kanila.
“I am just a President struggling to barely (keeping head) just above the water,” ani Duterte. “But what we share in common, maybe, is the passion to serve and it is a given,” dagdag niya. (Genalyn D. Kabiling)
