MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. maintained that now is not the right time for impeachment complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte, particularly as the country is approaching the election period.
The High Court in London will examine over several months whether BHP was partly liable for the 2015 collapse of a dam at a mining waste site in Brazil.
In an ambush interview in Leyte on Friday, Marcos was asked for a comment on Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Juan Ponce Enrile’s remarks.

“Are we prepared to discard or sacrifice the value of the rule of law for a person or a group of persons?” he also asked.
Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, in response to Enrile’s statement, emphasized Marcos’ commitment to fostering open discussion within his administration.
“In this way, policymaking is enriched by diverse views, resulting in decisions distilled from a wealth of varied experiences, different disciplines and special expertise of those who contribute,” Bersamin said in a statement on Thursday.
“While his (Enrile’s) thoughts may carry weight and are always valued, his is one of many that the President seriously considers,” he continued.
