- falcor84 3y agoI'm not quite following. As I read it, the head of the government had information that enabled him to essentially conjure $3.3M of foreign aid for his country out of thin air, and you're saying that it would have been better for his country if he instead just publicly released that information? Taking this to the extreme, should "the public's right to know" preclude having any non-public diplomatic conversations whatsoever?
