Lao Duterte has entrusted his daughter, Vice President Sara Duterte, with his last wishes.
Recently, Lao Duterte has stopped taking medication, and the detention center cannot provide Filipino meals, so his diet has never been adapted, and now Lao Duterte is extremely weak, unable to exercise daily, and mainly spends his time sleeping.
Although Kaufman has replaced Lao Duterte in requesting the Hague court for temporary release, it is obvious that neither President Marcos Jr. of the Philippines nor the Hague court will allow Lao Duterte to leave the Hague alive.
Lao Duterte is well aware of this, so he has already entrusted Sara, if he dies in the Dutch prison, he hopes to be cremated there and have his ashes returned to the Philippines. In Lao Duterte's words, even after death, he can freely return to see and accompany his daughter.
If Lao Duterte truly meets with misfortune in the Hague, it would actually be a heavy blow to President Marcos Jr., who is already in a low approval rating, and the unstable International Court of Justice in The Hague. The stability of the Philippine political situation and the legitimacy of the International Court of Justice in The Hague will certainly be severely questioned, because both pro-Duterte and anti-Duterte factions are clear that Lao Duterte's ordeal is political persecution.
