00:00In the middle of the calls for impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte,
00:05the Chief Presidential Legal Counsel, Juan Ponce Enrique,
00:09gave the impeachment as a legal process.
00:12In particular, he mentioned in a post online,
00:15the actions of the Church Of Christ,
00:17which according to the INC, is to support the position of President Bongbong Marcos
00:22to not impeach the Vice President.
00:23There, Enrique questioned the readiness of the country
00:26to sacrifice the rule of law for one person or one group of people.
00:30However, it does not mean that an official will be jailed because he was impeached.
00:36He called it a detrimental precedent,
00:38or a dangerous example if it will follow the logic of
00:43the division of the Church Of Christ.
00:45The Palace said, although Enrique's opinions are always heavy and important,
00:51the position of the President does not change on the issue.
