VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Panelo claim on Robredo’s Cabinet resignation needs context
Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo’s claim on Vice President Leni Robredo’s exit from President Rodrigo Duterte’s Cabinet in 2016 lacks context.
Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo’s claim on Vice President Leni Robredo’s exit from President Rodrigo Duterte’s Cabinet in 2016 lacks context.
Mula sa pagtawag na "tamang hakbang," tinawag ngayon ni Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo ang pakikipagulong ni Vice President Leni Robredo sa mga opisyal mula sa US at UN na "maling hakbang" na humantong sa kanyang pagpapatalsik bilang co-chair ng kampanya ng gobyerno kontra iligal na droga.
From calling it “the right step,” Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo now calls Vice President Leni Robredo’s meeting with officials from the United States (US) and United Nations (UN) as “missteps” that led to her ouster as co-chair of the government’s anti-illegal drug efforts.
Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo contradicted President Rodrigo Duterte’s prior pronouncement that Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo was on a “need to know” basis when she was Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD) co-chair.
Mali ang sinabi ni Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo na si Vice President Leni Robredo ay sinabihang "huwag nang dumalo” sa mga pagpupulong ng gabinete noong 2016 dahil ayaw ng pangulo na "mapahiya" siya sa harap ng iba pang mga miyembro ng Gabinete.
Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo wrongly claimed Vice President Leni Robredo was asked to “desist from attending” Cabinet meetings back in 2016 because the president “did not want to embarrass” her in front of other Cabinet members.
Pumayag si Vice President Leni Robredo na maging co-chairman ng Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD) ilang oras lamang matapos sabihin ng Liberal Party (LP), na pinamumunuan ni Robredo, na hindi niya tatanggapin ang nasabing posisyon.
Vice President Leni Robredo has agreed to co-chair the government’s Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD) just hours after the Liberal Party (LP), which Robredo chairs, said she will not accept the post.
