UNHRC seat vindicates Duterte's drug war: Philippines
Granting the Philippines a fresh three-year term on the UN Human Rights Council has vindicated President Rodrigo Duterte's crackdown on drugs and shown his critics to be "morally corrupt", Philippine Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano said. Philippines was re-elected with 165 out of the 192 votes cast. Human rights activists say Duterte's war on drugs has killed over 4,800.
