Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte is not done fighting with the United States of America.
CNN reports that giving a speech at the airport in Manila just before he departed for an official visit to Japan, Duterte said, "You know I didn't start this fight. They started it," referring to comments about his human rights record, made by US Ambassador to the Philippines, Philip Goldberg.
"They started it, then came out the issue of human rights, the State Department, Obama, EU. They did this to me. Then they said, we will cut our assistance. So I said to them, 'son of a bitch, do not make us your dogs, as if I am a dog with a leash, and you throw some bread, where I can't reach.'
"The ambassador said something not very nice. You are not supposed to do that because in an election of another country, you should be careful with your mouth."
