It has been days since the arbitral decision was given and Carpio didn’t hesitate to question the Rodrigo Duterte as Beijing actually dismisses the honor while Duterte won’t attest it. The resigned justice recorded examples wherein Duterte turned into a test for the implementation of the arbitral decision that refuted China’s nine-run line guarantee over the South China Sea, a piece of which is the West Philippine Sea.

For this reason, the official representative Harry Roque said he will assume President Rodrigo Duterte’s position in a discussion with previous Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio on issues encompassing the West Philippine Sea since it would be uncalled for the president to lower down to Carpio’s level.

The discussion had been the president’s thought and the test was given after a progression of affronts at the previous Supreme Court equity. Carpio has been censuring the public authority for making light of a 2016 arbitral decision saying China’s nine-run line guarantee over a huge piece of the South China Sea has no premise in global law.

Roque shared that the Cabinet individuals and legislators prompted the president against pushing through with the discussion since Carpio is currently “a standard legal counselor. Along whit this, Carpio promptly acknowledged the president’s demand to a discussion, which the Philippine Bar Association has offered to have.

In view of this, Duterte has, in ongoing taped segments of his gatherings with authorities, dispatched outbursts against Carpio and previous Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario. He has focused on that China was at that point in Panatag (Scarborough) Shoal when he became president and that the Aquino organization, where del Rosario filled in as international concerns secretary, are at fault for Chinese presence in the West Philippine Sea

Meanwhile, Carpio was getting down on President Rodrigo Duterte for “saving” the country’s arbitral honor in 2016,  Talking at an online gathering on Friday coordinated by the Philippine Bar Association, Carpio said the difficulties to the authorization of the arbitral come from China and Duterte.
