Philippine VP says bid 'unconstitutional'
-
Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte has described the impeachment complaint against her as “nothing more than a scrap of paper” in her formal response to the Senate, saying the case was baseless and should be dismissed for being unconstitutional.
The impeachment, widely seen as a test of political alliances, comes amid an acrimonious falling out between Ms Duterte and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr that has sparked a broader power struggle ahead of the 2028 presidential election.
Mr Marcos, who has distanced himself from the case, is limited to a single term but is expected to groom a successor to run. Ms Duterte, the daughter of former President Rodrigo Duterte, is viewed as a strong rival contender if she avoids impeachment.
