Duterte said US troops in Mindanao should leave as they are in danger of being kidnapped by the terrorist group Abu Sayyaf.

“The Special Forces, they have to go. They have to go in Mindanao. There are many whites there,” the President said during the oath taking of new appointees yesterday at Malacañang.

“If they see an American, they would kill him.  They would demand ransom then kill him. Even if you’re a black or white American, as long as you are an American, (they will kill you),” he added.
