      It is necessary at the same time to catch on properly, as long as they have a desire and grandmas to buy our weapons. And there you look, and it will be hard for the next to turn ...

      No narcotic substances were found. After his departure, the crew of the "Varyag" together crossed. This time it passed. belay

    Duterte seems to be struggling with any doping; in his free time from the main job, the president personally shoots drug dealers. Although drugs there are mostly purchased by minibus drivers, this is a kind of dope that helps to work out 14 hours a day.

    I talked with Filipinos who work for us in the company ... they say that Duterta in the Philippines has a very unequivocal attitude — he himself allegedly got out of the gangsters and is very cruel. If earlier he really was fair and pursued the interests of the majority of Filipinos, now he is more and more wallowing in the "personality cult". Moreover, under the "slogan" of the struggle against the drug-mafia and other banditry, it eliminates its political opponents and everything goes to the establishment of his personal dictatorship. But everyone pays tribute to him in that he, in fact, has done away with street crime that has cleared up lately.

      They had a cheerful ruler even before Duterte, his name was Marcos.

        Marcos was long before Duterte. After Marcos, there were already several presidents.

    Duterte is an ambiguous type. But with such contacts are needed.

    I am convinced that a "walk" in the Asia-Pacific region with two ships is worthy of more respect than a large AUG.
    PS although the submarine is somewhere nearby Yes
