Philippines threatens to retaliate if US sanctions De Lima’s Jailers

Tensions are rising. First off, Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo says that United States (US) Senators Dick Durbin and Patrick Leahy has been officially banned from entering the Philippines.

The two Senators were the ones who introduced a provision in the US Budget banning the entry to the US of Filipino officials responsible for Sen. Leila de Lima's arrest and detention.

Second, Panelo also said that if the US will indeed sanction De Lima's Filipino Jailers, the Philippines will retaliate by requiring all Tourists with US Passports traveling to the Philippines to acquire Visas before arrival.
