WASHINGTON, (APP/AFP): US President Barack Obama cancelled a planned meeting with Rodrigo Duterte, the White House said Monday, after the Philippine leader launched a foul-mouthed tirade against him.
“President Obama will not be holding a bilateral meeting with President Duterte of the Philippines this afternoon,” National Security Council spokesman Ned Price said.
“Instead, he will meet with President Park (Geun-hye) of the Republic of Korea this afternoon.”
