Description[?]:
| (This bill was proposed by the MP for Bekenial Centre Kaitlyn Thompson) Diplomatic immunity ensures that diplomats can carry out their diplomatic duties without fear of harassment or persecution by the host country's authorities. Granting full diplomatic immunity to foreign diplomats is a widely accepted practice in international law and is often granted in bilateral agreements between nations. What we want, is for Hutori to be considered a civilised nation capable of following basic international convention. This is why we propose for Hutori to follow the basic guidelines for cordial diplomatic relationship. |
