There seems to be way too many plane crashes involving politicians, scientists and the judiciary.
i hope MY country's Duterte CRACKS DOWN on american diplomats and representatives in the country --
he basically told everyone - repeatedly and pulbicly --
"i consider every single american diplomat a SPY for the CIA and state department...we follow diplomatic protocols and international rules -- but just so everyone understands -- i consider the US embassy as a spy agency -- they are not real diplomats....that's just how the USA operates...only a fool thinks it is anything else but that....of course there are spies everywhere -- but no country actually establishes an embassy for that express purpose -- to spy on people in order to undermine their sovereignty....they are not real professional diplomats ....but CIA operatives...what do you think their USAID around the world and in our country is all about? ....even if we couldn't do much about it because we've always been like a dog on the leash...but let's be direct...that's what it is -- it's about american imperialism...so if anyone is talking about all these things -- u know...about killing me or changing the government....it's not hard to understand why and who".
================
PROBABLY in private conversations by now == since his ''controversial bad mouth" statements..
the RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR IGOR KOVAEV - in the philippines -- around the five-day visit by the RUSSIAN war ships and sailors 3 eweeks ago -- went on a flurry of press appearances - and i was quite shocked at how much coverage that got (even nowadays, it seems) -
repeating something like:
"our two countries have lost so much time and opportunity to get to know each other -- our peoples -- it is long past the time when our peoples should have deep friendly relations in ALL areas for our mutual benefits...
''we will NOT tolerate ANY attempt by ANY third country to INterfere in the relations
between OUR two sovereign countries".
i am basically just ''relearning" about the country -- the ''mood" - that there IS widespread support for the president's crackdown on drug lords, addiction, rehab programs (which china providing already at least a billion to tackle that -- as a grant -- plus 15 billion that Duterte requested as a soft-loan, low-interest long term repayment development loan -- in place of US 400 Million strings attached -- ''aid" -- ) .
and am finding out (with e mail confirmation by relatives back home) - that indeed a lot of projects are already being laid out:
high speed rail, infrastructure, small and mid-sized business support, harbors, technology transfer from china and russia - cultural and education exchange , counter-terrorism , security, rural development...
i hope they flush out these CIA and their collaborators.
but one ''curious" and probably ''under wraps' but potentially significant thing is
less than 2 weeks ago -- Russian Prime Minister DMITRY MEDVEDEV seems to have made a ''quiet" visit to manila -- airport basically closed in the area he landed on -- and no news i could get locally..so something 'hush hush" it seems --
as PUTIN originally invited -- reminded -- Duterte last december in LIMA PERU asia pacific conference APEC -- "I WILL Wait for you in Moscow" -- but duterte can't stand the cold with his bad back, lol.
so it appears ''private talks " -- they are following up by having medvedev go earlier to manila instead until duterte can follow up when it's spring in moscow. i guess.
but to ME - IT means they are moving things ''under the radar" PROBABLY with an eye towards potential (and already building) 'regime change" operations by the CIA, regardless of TRUMP saying "we won't do regime change' ...
