| Message | NEVER! These are all vital instruments of international human rights law and our country must continue to support and uphold them. We believe that this is the first step towards an isolationist totalitarian state, especially as it is even proposed to withdraw from the International Chess Association, the International Red Cross and the Organ Procurement and Exchange Network for Transplantation. |
