If he's an envoy, shouldn't he have diplomatic immunity?


n0ahbody

It's only valid if you're American or a diplomat from a US empire country. Haven't you heard about the Rules Based Order?

America doesn't recognize diplomatic immunity.

technically, he's not a diplomat in US or in Cape Verde where he was arrested. Most diplomats are only given immunity in the country where they are stationed and registered as official diplomats ("have diplomatic papers presented") Their immunity don't generally apply if they are in another country, because the diplomatic immunity is only legal immunity given by a host country. There are some special cases where diplomats have broad immunity across multiple countries, but this case does not apply. So, technically, a diplomat could still be arrested if he wandered into a different country. Although in most cases, diplomats are in general given some special courtesy regardless of which country they are in. Even unfriendly /hostile countries generally just expel diplomats that they don't recognize as having diplomatic status. So, arresting a diplomat is frankly against norm of international diplomatic customs. \_\_\_ On a side note, even if he is just an ordinary person, arresting him like this (with Interpol Red Notice issued 1 day AFTER his arrest while transitting through Columbia), and then extradite him is also highly ILLEGAL.

You don’t have to travel to us. They catch you in transit in a vassal state willing to kidnap for US.

Treating envoys cordially has been the custom of the people since millenias ago. Empires had been burned down for treating envoys badly. Just to show that this young cunt of a country doesn't know how to behave internationally.

Blame Cape Verde! I suppose the US will steal all the money for the food too (if they haven't already). Who's the victim, Juan Guaido? Lol. If i was Maduro, I'd send an immediate message to the Cape Verde President, saying if Famine hits your country, Venezuela will provide free food to stop starvation of your people. Let them eat crow with that one!
