LIVESTREAM: ICC’s 2nd status conference on Duterte’s case

The International Criminal Court held its second status conference on the case involving former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who once again opted not to attend, waiving his right to appear. This ongoing legal scrutiny highlights the ICC's commitment to addressing allegations of crimes against humanity in the Philippines, despite Duterte's absence. With no clear indication of when he might participate, this raises questions about the future of the case and the political ramifications for both national and international audiences. The conference underscores the ICC's role in seeking accountability for serious crimes, regardless of political figures' participation.
