In theory, it could have, but I have no idea. Was it another country or another organization? Who knows? I do know, though, that had that not been the case, I would definitely be dead.
A government's number one responsibility is to protect its citizens. That is much more important than adhering to great principles.
I mentioned what happened in the Philippines, and it cost Mr. Ridsdel and Mr. Hall their lives. They were killed, and the Norwegian was not. Few countries have a better reputation than Norway. It has a reputation of doing what it says, and is seen as a reasonable, respectable and generous country that honours its commitments. I agree, for that matter.
