Manila, June 11 -- The possible dismissal of the impeachment case against Vice President Sara Duterte will have no negative impact on President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., Malacanang said on Wednesday.

Palace Press Officer Claire Castro stressed that the President has nothing to do with the impeachment complaint filed against Duterte.

In a Palace press briefing, Castro maintained that Duterte's case now lies in the hands of Congress.

"So, wala po tayong nakikitang anumang negative impact na mangyayari sa Pangulo dahil hindi po siya kasama sa anumang pagtatagisan ng talino sa debate dito sa Senado (we do not see any negative impact that will happen to the President because he is not part of any intellectual debate in the Senate)," she said...
