PRESIDENTIAL spokesman Harry Roque Jr. on Wednesday hit back at officials of the University of the Philippines (UP) in Diliman, Quezon City over their supposed attempt to 'ignore and erase' his accomplishments due to their difference in political beliefs.

While he respects the opinion of the UP Diliman's executive committee objecting to his nomination to the International Law Commission (ILC), Roque criticized its reason behind the opposition as a 'flimsy justification.'
