00:05under the leadership of Atty. Nicholas Kaufman.

00:08And there is a Filipino who will be a part of this.

00:11From The Hague, Netherlands, it is revealed that Maris Umali.

00:16Maris?

00:18Pia, the former President Rodrigo Duterte has accepted his resignation here in the International Criminal Court

00:24according to his son, Vice President Sara Duterte.

00:27But according to Vice President Sara Duterte, he will not give up

00:30and he will form his entire defense team

00:33so that he can be released and return to the country as soon as possible.

00:40There is a team that has been formed to defend the former President Rodrigo Duterte

00:44in the International Criminal Court

00:46under the leadership of Atty. Nicholas Kaufman.

00:50Atty. Kaufman did not mention who he will be with in the defense team

00:54but he confirmed that there is a Filipino who will be a part of this.

00:58It's going to be a core team of maximum 5 members

01:01and we will be appointing other people to assist us on a need-speed basis.

01:06At the very least, will there be a Filipino in the team?

01:08Yes.

01:10Yes, there is.

01:11How big is the role of the Filipino lawyer in the defense team of the President?

01:17Yes, there needs to be a Filipino lawyer

01:19because there are laws that will be argued in the Philippines.

01:26There is a Filipino lawyer in the team.

01:30When I asked if this is the former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea

01:34or the former Presidential Spokesperson Atty. Harry Roque,

01:37he even made a shortlist.

01:40I ordered him to interview Nicholas Kaufman.

01:46I ordered him to look for a Filipino lawyer.

01:51Is he ICC accredited?

01:54Likely, no.

01:56Because only a few are ICC accredited.

01:59But we'll see.

02:02It depends on the ability of the lawyer.

02:08Vice said that it seems that the former President has already accepted what is happening

02:11and that he will take care of it.

02:13He messaged his supporters after the arrest.

02:16The country will get worse and worse, he said,

02:20because the governance in our country is clearly fractured

02:28and people are disgruntled.

02:32What did you say to the former President, Sobeit?

02:38Sobeit, he was referring to his faith.

02:43He said, everything is up to God.

02:46Whatever happens in my life, Sobeit.

02:49I think he doesn't mind that he is inside

02:51because he knows that it is part of what he said he would do.

02:58He will face any case.

03:02Vice said that his mother, Elizabeth Zimmerman, will arrive next week in The Hague.

03:07The former President's common law partner, Honelette, and Veronica's daughter will also arrive.

03:13We also showed VP Sara how her conversation with her father in prison is going.

03:19I have no privilege in communication.

03:21The guards are listening and recording our conversation.

03:28We were able to talk about legal strategy in codes.

03:37Because they are listening to everything we are saying.

03:42They are recording, translating, and sending it to the court.

03:48We were able to talk in codes in Visayas.

03:53Vice also assured that even while in The Hague,

03:56she is still ready to face her impeachment case.

04:00Former Executive Secretary Salvador Medeldea,

04:02who was also confined in The Hague, Netherlands for a few days,

04:05is now out of the hospital, according to Senator Bongo.

04:12And that's the latest from The Hague, Netherlands.

04:15Back to you, Fiya.

04:17Thank you, Marie Jamali.
