Not trying to be obtuse, but it is in the best interest of countries not to owe other countries favors or have skeletons that can be used against them. In simpler words - cry me a river that the US is able to use human rights abuses, corruption, etc., against you because, if not the US, someone else will. But the same goes for the US. If you don't want to be embarrassed by facts that are revealed as leaks, don't do what you did in the first place.
