Trump signs US Budget which includes a Provision to sanction De Lima’s Jailers

United States (US) President Donald Trump has just signed his country’s budget which includes an amendment authorizing the US secretary of state to bar those behind Sen. Leila de Lima’s detention from entering the US.

The amendment also includes the freezing of assets in the US of those individuals. I expect the US Government to start naming names of those they deem responsible for De Lima’s jailing and imposing sanctions on them soon.

It’s hard to know how President Rodrigo Duterte will react to this as he and his supporters and government officials will be affected by the sanctions. I doubt he’ll be happy with it, but worst case is if his Word War with the US escalates.
