00:00Let's talk to Jimmy Integrated News Stringer, Andy Peña Fuerte III, who is live from The Hague, Netherlands.

00:08Andy, what's the latest there?

00:11Good evening to you in the Philippines, Pia, and good afternoon here in The Hague.

00:17The first appearance of former President Rodrigo Duterte started at 2.34 p.m. here and ended at 2.59 p.m. yesterday.

00:27According to the first news, former President Duterte was not in the chamber and he went to the live stream.

00:33And like what we heard, he was beaten by former President Duterte.

00:45Pia?

00:46Andy, I just want to clarify this because we saw earlier in the pre-trial that the former president was not there

00:55and he was not in front of the personnel because the trip was long.

00:58How many minutes was the trip?

01:00And what is the time difference, Andy, from where the president is and where the ICC is?

01:10Pia, the detention center where the former president Duterte is now is 1.4 kilometers away from where we are standing here.

01:21And if you're going to take a taxi or ride a car, it's just a few minutes, but if you're going to walk, it's 19 minutes away.

01:28Meanwhile, as you saw in my lecture, the former spokesperson Harry Roque is currently speaking.

01:37He is talking to our countrymen here.

01:42Back to you, Pia.

01:44All right.

01:45Andy, we just want to clarify this because you said that Harry Roque is there, the former presidential spokesperson,

01:51but the former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea is in front of the pre-trial chamber.

01:57Is Harry Roque going to set up a legal council with the former Executive Secretary Medialdea?

02:05In our initial information, when we talked to Attorney Roque after the first appearance,

02:12he confirmed that he was given the request to be included in the legal council.

02:19That is based on the initial information that the former spokesperson Harry Roque told us.

02:26Earlier, around 9 p.m., we said that they were trying to see the former president.

02:34Roque confirmed that they did not see the former president when they visited the penitentiary here at the ITC detention center earlier.

02:46So, they just got a go-signal, or they just got a go-signal.

02:52So, we are hoping that they will see the former president at any time.

02:57According to Attorney Roque, their priority is to see Jutis Sara Duterte, her father.

03:07All right.

03:08So, Andy, this means that the former President Duterte, Vice President Sara Duterte,

03:15his son, Attorney Harry Roque,

03:17is also with Senator Robin Padilla because he also came with Vice President Duterte?

03:25That's right, Tia.

03:26Senator Robin Padilla is also with the ICC.

03:33For now, we are still waiting to know if they will go to the detention center

03:39because maybe 10 minutes ago, DT Sara went out to the exit of the security registration area.

03:50And now, Attorney Harry Roque is behind us.

03:53So, we received word that they will have a media interview at 5 p.m.

04:01So, we will wait for their update.

04:04All right.

04:05We will wait for that, Andy, so that we can also know what their preparations will be

04:09because the ICC will hold the next hearing in September.

04:13So, their time is quite long to prepare.

04:17And of course, we want to know if this means that, for example, Vice President Duterte

04:23and the legal counsel of the former President Duterte will not leave the Hague and the Netherlands.

04:29But, Andy, I know that you will be watching from there.

04:32There are a lot of people who are thankful and see that our fellow Filipinos,

04:37there are some who support, there are others who are against,

04:42there are some who support Vice President Duterte and there are others who support the ICC.

04:48Is there tension between the groups outside the Hague or the ICC?

04:56As of now, before we entered the chamber, the supporters of the former President Duterte,

05:06when they heard that the contracts will arrive here, the regulations for the former President Duterte,

05:11because they are in favor of filibuster,

05:15there were a lot of supporters who said to keep calm,

05:20while we did not hear that there was a commotion against the other side.

05:28Andy, one last question, because we know that, as we mentioned,

05:33the former President Duterte is the first Asian head of state to be arrested by the ICC.

05:40How is the international coverage that you see there in the Hague,

05:45because he is the former President of the Philippines?

05:48And of course, we also see that there are other international news agencies that are there.

05:55We have a lot of colleagues or fellow members of the international media that are here.

06:01We have a lot of people talking to the local media.

06:04They say that this is a big thing now because the first Asian head of state

06:12was arrested here by the ICC.

06:17We have people talking to the media from Asia,

06:24but here, it is based in Europe.

06:26That's what they told us.

06:28So, our fellow members of the international media

06:32will also monitor the arrest of the former President Duterte.

06:38All right, Andy. We will keep you updated.

06:40Thank you very much, GMA Integrated News Stinger, Andy Panafuerte III.
