00:00In the campaign rally of the Alliance for a New Philippines in Cavite,
00:29and in Laguna, Senator Aimee Marcos and Congresswoman Camille Villar were both absent.
00:34At the same time, President Bongbong Marcos mentioned in his speech that Villar is not Senator Aimee's brother.
00:42There are 12 candidates in the Alliance's slate, but...
00:45And let's not make the Alliance the only Alliance of 11 people, 11 candidates,
00:52who are running as Senators in the Alliance.
00:56We are trying to get the group's statement in accordance with the President's statement.
01:00Before this, Aimee and Villar allegedly arrested former President Rodrigo Duterte on March 11
01:07and Marcos' administration in the ICC suspended him.
01:11The two were absent from the Alliance's campaign rallies since then, including in Tacloba on March 14.
01:17Senator Aimee said that she cannot attend the gathering
01:21because she cannot accept what was done to the former President, the Senator's presidential sister,
01:27who is also an ally of Vice President Sara Duterte.
01:30The media asked the Alliance's campaign manager, Congressman Tobit Yanko,
01:34about the absence of the two in the rallies.
01:37Are there any plans to drop Senator Aimee from the line-up of the Alliance?
01:43There are also speculations that Congressman Camille Villar will also be dropped from the slate.
01:51I think, like for Aimee, she should be able to answer those questions, not us.
01:57So far, the Alliance and the Nationalists have not talked about their future in the slate?
02:05None.
02:06Senator Aimee said that they have not talked to the President and Yanko.
02:11I don't know. I don't know. I haven't asked yet.
02:13You have not withdrawn from the Alliance?
02:15No, no. No action taken.
02:17From the polls, I said that I am independent because I am afraid that something bad will happen
02:26and I don't want to get involved in a fight.
02:29I am afraid that the two sides will really clash.
02:32And it happened.
02:34She is more confident now in hearing about the arrest of the former President.
02:38I am worried. I am very busy. It's hard to study international law.
02:42We are not familiar with it.
02:44Their system is different.
02:45Most importantly, let's not give up our sovereignty.
02:50GMA Integrated News texted Representative Villar for his reaction.
02:54We are waiting for his response.
02:57Here is the first news.
02:58Jonathan Andal for GMA Integrated News.
