President Marcos clarified that while the Philippines withdrew from the ICC, it remains committed to Interpol obligations, signaling potential compliance if an ICC request for Duterte’s arrest emerges. DOJ and PNP officials reaffirmed the country’s readiness to honor any Interpol Red Notice, acknowledging established protocol to assist in international law enforcement. Duterte, in recent House hearings, called on the ICC to investigate, yet the Philippine government holds a non-cooperative stance with the ICC. Marcos emphasized that any arrest decision rests on legal procedures and Duterte’s own stance, while PNP affirms preparedness for such international collaboration.
