UN pull-out threat a 'joke': Duterte
President Rodrigo Duterte has said his threat to pull the Philippines out of the United Nations for criticising his war on drugs was just a "joke. Duterte on Sunday said he may withdraw the Philippines from the world body after a UN human rights expert said last week his encouragement of security forces to kill drug suspects violated international law. Nearly 2,000 people have been killed since Duterte was sworn into office on June 30, according to the national police chief.
