Duterte to CPP-NPA : "You deserve NO Mercy"

The patience of the President is about to be depleted with respect to the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army ( CPP-NPA).

President Rodrigo Roa Duterte said that the communists do not deserve mercy, they can never be considered as revolutionaries but plain “criminals.”

“They are all criminals.  Do not consider them revolutionary. They are just plain bandits and that is the way we should treat them,” President Duterte said in his speech in the Barangay Summit on Good Governance Region XI in Davao City last Tuesday.

“Don’t surrender anymore because if I see you again I will shoot you.No more surrender because you are a cruel and brutal people. The national media is here. You do not deserve mercy,” Duterte added.

Duterte  said he would just “finish” the NPA’s whom he has described were “in a continuous crime of rebellion 24 hours a day” by going “around the community asking for money and killing them if we don’t give. “

“Why do I need to have a warrant? By the fact that you are a rebel you are a 24-hour violator of the Revised Penal Code of rebellion,” the President said.

The President announced that soon he will stop accepting surrenderers and would just start killing of the rebels.

Peace talks between government and the CCP-NPA – National Democratic Front ( CPP-NPA-NDF) have collapse after Duterte signed Proclamation No.369, formally terminating the peace talks with the Maoist insurgents.

Government reasons out while there is an ongoing peace talks, rebels continue to launch series of attacks against government troops.

Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdia told mediamen there will be no government declared ceasefire despite Joma Sison’s pronouncement that the NPA is ready to declare a temporary suspension of hostilities just for this holiday.

“I no longer believe this could be done through the talks,” Duterte said. “They were the ones who declared a unilateral ceasefire, I did not ask for it, but they were also the one who launched the attack in Sorsogon and here in the region. They killed the wife of a Cafgu,” the President said.
