Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte compared his campaign to kill criminals to the Holocaust, saying he would like to "slaughter" millions of addicts just like Adolf Hitler "massacred" millions of Jewish people.
"Hitler massacred three million Jews. Now, there are 3 million drug addicts. ... I'd be happy to slaughter them," he told reporters early Friday, according to GMA News.
"You know my victims, I would like to be, all criminals, to finish the problem of my country and save the next generation from perdition," he said.
The comment was a response to critics who have likened him to Hitler.
