Vice President Sara Duterte on Saturday kept her silence over President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s request to lawmakers not to file an impeachment complaint against her.

“I will not comment on the remarks of President Marcos,” Duterte said in Filipino in an ambush interview at the Veterans Memorial Medical Center in Quezon City.

Marcos had asked congressmen to refrain from filing an impeachment complaint against the Vice President, saying it was “not important.”

Duterte also declined to comment about Marcos saying “never say never” about a possible patching up of their tattered friendship. She earlier said her relationship with the Chief Executive had reached a “point of no return.”

The Vice President said in a midnight press briefing last weekend that she had instructed someone to assassinate Marcos, Speaker Martin Romualdez and First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos should she herself be killed.

She later said her statement was taken out of context, that it did not constitute an active threat against the President.
