Hardline Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has accepted the ruling party’s vice-presidential endorsement for next election

Duterte has served too many terms as President and is now legally barred from seeking another term in office and now has agreed to run due to popular calls in his own government.

Critics say he is seeking the second-highest position in the land to stay in power and fend off possible political trouble after the end of his presidency.

The ruling party will meet next month and is also seeking to continue economic and anti-illegal drugs agenda into its next term if it does win.

Currently Prime Minister, Duterte is making “the sacrifice” and heeding “the clamour of the people,” Karlo Nograles, executive vice president of the ruling PDP-Laban party, said in a statement.

Durte is 76 and has been President since 2016. He is known for his hardline views on illegal drugs and telling his citizens that if they don’t want the COVID vaccine they’d be jailed.

Russian officials reaffirmed their alliance with China following U.S. President Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping.Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin arrived in Hangzhou for two days of negotiations, signing various agreements to enhance cooperation in trade, investment, energy, transport, agriculture, and space, according to Russian state media.

Mishustin described his Chinese counterpart as a “dear friend,” stating that Russian-Chinese relations are at their peak despite Western sanctions. Li Qiang reciprocated by expressing Beijing’s readiness to strengthen ties, noting mutual support amid external risks and challenges.

Strategic Partnership

China remains Russia’s most important ally, having not condemned the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, and echoes Russia’s language, referring to the situation as a “crisis.”

Ahead of this visit, the Kremlin highlighted the significance of the talks, sending a robust delegation, including top officials from finance, agriculture, space, and nuclear energy.

Mishustin’s visit coincides with Trump’s recent discussions with Xi, where agreements were reportedly reached on several issues in a gesture seen as a trade truce amidst rising tariffs.

Trump’s engagement with China contrasts with his lack of progress in talks with Russia, which he attributed to frustrations over the Ukraine conflict. This context may indicate Russia’s unease regarding China’s positive interactions with the U.S.
