00:00Well, I can only really verify those documents that have come in to the DOJ, and as of today,

00:10wala pa po tayong nare-receive the notice of any warrant that has been issued by the

00:14ICC.

00:15Kaya po, sinasabi lang po natin that the government is ready kung sakaling magkaroon po ng warrant

00:22of arrest galing sa ICC.

00:24So that if ever there are instructions from the Interpol, and of course dahil nagsign

00:30po tayo sa international agreement na yan, we are bound to oblige and to respect that.

00:35So if ever may request po sila, ang NCB po ang magpaprocess dun, at sila na rin po ay

00:41gagalaw based on that request.

00:44I think the previous briefer that we have given to the President on the pros and cons

00:50of each action, whether to respect the request of the ICC through the Interpol or not, is

00:57something that we already briefed the President on, and it is up to him to interpret that

01:04and to decide which is best for our country.
