Rodrigo Duterte regrette d'avoir insulté Obama, mais les problèmes de fond demeurent

Les États-Unis n'ont pas eu à attendre les excuses bien longtemps, mais au-delà des mots il y a une situation difficile et des problèmes qui perdurent.

 Un exemple:

"First, this is about the drug war, not Duterte's language.

When Duterte was running for office, he promised an all-out war on drugs. What he has delivered is a war on suspected drug users, dealers and their families. An estimated 2,400 people have been killed in two months.

The tidal wave of extrajudicial and vigilante killings is devastating the Philippines. Recent victims include a 4-year-old girl out to get popcorn with her father, and a 5-year-old shot to death in her family's store.

 Duterte is not particularly interested in talking about human rights — he has said as much. Now, because he cursed out Obama's mother, he doesn't have to; instead of apologizing for overseeing executions, he can say sorry for his dirty mouth."
