The European Union (EU) lawmakers is threatening the country of an
imposition of economic sanctions for alleged violation of human rights, closure
of a broadcast network, and cases of a detained legislator and a journalist.
And this has been met with such indignation in the country, and points
to the convicted Maria Ressa as the one responsible for such resolution.
University of the Philippines Political Science Professor Clarita R.
Carlos in her Facebook gives her two cents on the issue.
While there is the much-debated “responsibility to protect” underpinned
on the oneness of humanity, let us also remind the EU that before they start
throwing stones in our direction, better check first the glasshouses they also
live in,”said Carlos.

The European Union has
threatened to impose economic sanctions on Philippine goods entering EU markets
because of alleged violation of human rights in re EJKs, closure of a network
and the cases of a detained legislator and a journalist...
1. I think the
government should respond to all these allegations/accusations and even invite
an independent team to verify the bases of the claims re these cases;
2. But, since the EU
wants to take the moral high ground in regard to the aforementioned, let us
just remind them that right at their shores are thousands of refugees in
despicable and inhumane conditions, which the 26 EU members are tossing about
as each one refuses to take in any of these refugees;
3. Let us also remind
them of the leader of one EU country who had repeatedly declared that it will
not accept any refugee because “it will diminish and compromise the christian
tradition of its people.”
4. While there is the
much debated “responsibility to protect” underpinned on the oneness of
humanity, let us also remind the EU that before they start throwing stones in
our direction, better check first the glass houses they also live in...
