In @semafor: Fixated on #China and #Russia, the U.S. is deploying the #CoastGuard far beyond its borders. Missions to the Arctic, Far East and Galapagos Islands. bit.ly/3GoMocO

This is a rather big deal, even if these men will never show up in court. It is essential to send a clear message that impunity is not acceptable, not in Syria, not in Ukraine, not anywhere. The wheels of justice grind slowly but they grind very fine.
