“strict adherence to so-called international law”
Much more than Obama shooting drone missiles in Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia and God knows where. Which international law gives him the right to do that?
Which international law gave the US deputy State Secretary Nulland the right to set up a coup d’état in Ukraine, a foreign country, and to choose its new prime minister?
Which international law gives the NSA the right of listening to the phone conversations of other countries’ leaders?
When talking about “respect of the international law”, the US has always ignored the log in its own eye.
One of the last things I worry about is so-called “international law”, which was set up to erode the sovereignty of nations. Putin’s invocation is actually reminiscent of what the USSR used to do to the USA at the UN.
