US administration repeatedly failed to honour quite a number of defence treaties as of lately.
- AYBABTME 6y agoWhich?
- baybal2 6y ago1. US Philippines Defence Treaty, USA allegedly refused to honor it when Philippines demanded USA assist clearing Mischief Reef, multiple times, and under multiple administrations. 2. Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security Between the United States and Japan, refused to acknowledge Chinese hostility against Japanese controlled island. 3. Mutual Defense Treaty Between the United States and the Republic of Korea, Koreans requested US aid countless times, on record. 4. Taiwan Relations Act, repeatedly failed to classify air incursions as attack under the act. 5. Suggested that Montenegro is not protected by the Article V, and voila, they got a Russian Coup d'état attempt in a few months. 6. Ukraine, you know the story.

- AnimalMuppet 6y agoAir incursions are not an attack. The US and Russia do it to each other all the time, yet remain not at war.

- croes 6y agoThe US has a long history of failed honouring of international laws. Why should they honour any treaties? There are not many countries that are allowed to support coups against elected leaders of one country with impunity, or are allowed to kill people in other countries by drone, or force other countries to implement their sanctions. With their actions in the Middle East, South America or Kosovo they have provided the blueprints according to which Russia and China now act. What is the status of the sanctions against Saudi Arabia for the assassination of Khashoggi? Are there no more, right? You don't read about Raif Badawi anymore. Because we and our allies are the good ones. It is this hypocrisy that has brought us today's problems in the first place
- croes 6y agoBTW guess who sanctioned war crimes investigators for looking into possible war crimes of their troops? You want peace and justice in the world, then start judging everyone by the same standards.
