Duterte warns end to US defence pact during Japan visit

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has arrived in Japan for three-day of talks, but the first day of his visit was overshadowed by his rants against the United States, calling Americans "foolish" while threatening to cut off a 2014 defence pact with Washington DC. "The Americans are really a bully," for chastising him over his deadly war on drugs, Duterte told a crowd of Filipinos in Tokyo. He called it "demeaning" for the US to hint at cutting aid and assistance to the Philippines on human rights grounds, saying, "You can have it. It's all yours. We will survive."
