A PEACE talks consultant for the communist rebels who was arrested is “protected” by an agreement with the government, the exiled founder of the Communist Party of the Philippines said on Thursday

The continued arrest of consultants of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) only showed that President Duterte did not want to resume peace negotiations between the government and communist rebels

Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) founding chair Jose Maria Sison on Wednesday denied allegations that communist rebels are plotting to oust President Rodrigo Duterte in December.

Sison said he thinks Duterte is taking too much of the anti-pain drug Fentanyl, leading him to have “pipe dreams.”

“It is more likely that Duterte would be ousted from power than that he could destroy the people´s revolutionary movement by the middle of next year,” Sison said Wednesday.

“Duterte is delusional by claiming that he shall have destroyed the CPP-NPA and the entire revolutionary movement of the people by the middle of next year,” Sison said in an online interview from Utrecht, Netherlands.

“May the negative example of the butcher general Palparan serve as a deterrent to human rights violations by military and police officers,” Sison said in an online interview from his base in Utrecht, The Netherlands.

While the Communist Party of the Philippines wishes to oust President Rodrigo Duterte, it does not conspire with opposition groups like Magdalo, its founder said September 12, 2018, denying earlier claims of the chief executive.

“The tipping point can come time anytime between now and let’s say middle of next year, probably. That’s a good allowance of exerting efforts in order to oust Duterte,” Sison said in an interview over ABS-CBN News Channel on Wednesday morning.
