Manila: Former Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario said President Rodrigo Duterte’s declaration that he was not inclined to send a new Philippine envoy to the United States may be viewed as a disturbing message in the relationship of the two nations.

“I believe (that this) is a matter which should be urgently revisited,” del Rosario said on Friday.
