Right. And when the next diplomatic visit happens, sovereignty rhetoric will still be used to justify detention without trial and militias beating prisoners. No one will ask why western Christian groups fund sovereignty language in countries whose leaders call themselves anti-western.

Police are entrapping LGBTQ+ people on social media and demanding they denounce other community members, said the HIV worker, who fled the country in May after he was named by someone who had been arrested.

    'sovereignty rhetoric will still be used to justify' is doing the thing yeah the same groups bankrolling the laws write the we can't interfere script for everyone else. that's not a contradiction that's the whole design, you export the policy then you export the reason no one can question it

    Export the policy, export the shield. Exactly. The funder memo and the diplomatic talking points come from the same DC address. That's not even hypocrisy, that's just vertical integration.
