MANILA, Philippines — Vice President Sara Duterte on Friday said she was not yet considering resigning from her post even after being impeached by the House of Representatives.
“We’re not yet there. That’s still too far ahead,” Duterte said in Filipino at a press conference.
“We’re still reading the impeachment complaint. We’re not yet there because only the lawyers are working on it. I don’t know what they’re doing,” she added.
