Manila Bulletin reported that Vice President Robredo had no interest to debate with Roque and she’s only open to talk to the President about the West Philippine Sea issue.

In an interview on DZBB, Vice Presidential Spokesperson Barry Gutierrez said that Vice President Robredo was ready to face President Duterte if it was the President who wanted to talk to her.

Vice President Robredo voiced “serious concern” on President Duterte’s recent remarks that China was in possession of the West Philippine Sea (WPS) and the arbitral award in 2016 was a “mere scrap of paper” to be thrown away in the wastebasket.

So iyon ‘yung isyu na gusto niyang tutukan. Hindi siya naghahamon sa debate. Ang kaniyang kinokomentuhan ay ang sinabi ni Pangulong Duterte. So walang kinalaman si Harry Roque dito,” Gutierrez said.

Gutierrez also said that Vice President Robredo would rather focus on her job in addressing the coronavirus pandemic than having a debate with Roque.
