Vice President Sara Duterte, responding to her recent impeachment by the lower house, stated she is not considering resigning. Facing serious allegations, she emphasized a potential run for the presidency in 2028, but remains cautious, awaiting survey feedback. Duterte is charged with serious offenses, including misusing public funds and plotting violence against high officials, all of which she vehemently denies. President Marcos Jr. asserted his independence from the congressional actions, seeking to distance himself from the unfolding political drama as Duterte rallies her supporters for faith in her.
"We're not there yet. Those things are still too far off," Duterte said in her first public comments since the impeachment vote.
"We are seriously considering that, but it's difficult to decide without numbers, so we have to know the surveys and numbers, but that's still for next year," she said.
"There is an implication that somehow I am giving [Congress] orders. That is not the case at all. We are independent of each other," he told reporters.
"Have faith" that she will fight against the impeachment allegations, despite admitting she has yet to read the charges against her.
