That's the point of extradition agreements. If we're worried that Brazil's Senate has passed morally incompatible laws and wants to extradite folks from the US, then we won't agree. The State Department is (or tries to be) on top of any foreign legislation that would change our agreements.
- pablodh 7y agoI'm not talking about morality but legitimacy, why are you bound to follow laws that were not voted for representatives you chose on a country you never been?
- sbov 7y agoThey're legitimate because your representatives made extradition deals with said countries.
- pablodh 7y agoThat's why I think there must be limits regarding what reasons a country can use to ask for an extradition, specially if you want to extradite a person that's not even an American for treason, espionage or stuff like that.
