Peter Lemkin Wrote:While the United States did not sign or ratify the 1954 convention on diplomatic asylum, it has often used the safety of its embassies to protect activists in authoritarian countries. "The United States is not a party to the 1954 OAS Convention on Diplomatic Asylum and does not recognise the concept of diplomatic asylum as a matter of international law," the State Department said in a statement.

Yeah, well, just like the International Criminal Court, which Amerika refuses to recognise.

To adapt Leona Hemsley, the US attitude is that "treaties are for little people"....
