Go says Senate hearing on Duterte’s arrest already ‘too late’
Senator Bong Go believes a Senate hearing initiated by Senator Imee Marcos into the arrest of former President Rodrigo Duterte is "too late" to be effective.
Go expressed that the inquiry, while respecting Senator Marcos's right as chairperson of the Committee on Foreign Relations, comes at a point where Duterte cannot be brought back.
He conveyed that if Duterte could be returned, then daily hearings would be warranted, highlighting his sentiment that the timing is unfavorable.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations hearing is scheduled for Thursday, March 20.
