The US does little to restrain Erdoğan from accusing political opposition of "terrorism".

"Offshore" means "in a tax haven". Some important tax havens are in quasi-independent islands, but Switzerland, Belgium, the UK and the US also function as tax havens.

All that money concealed from taxation leaves governments short on funds, which translates into poverty.

The UK government has arbitrarily terminated the citizenship of Shamima Begum. Attempts to block that decision failed.

Exile of citizens is not an acceptable punishment.

What makes this even worse is that the punishment was imposed without a trial. No punishment should be imposed without a trial.

Adding insult (to the public) to that injury, the minister who decided on exile for her cited an absurd excuse. She has no other citizenship, but the minister did not wish to recognize the fact that this would leave her stateless. So the he claimed it was sufficient that she would be entitled to citizenship in Bangladesh — theoretically.

No one knows what would happen if she tried to apply for citizenship in Bangladesh. Perhaps that country deny her citizenship, citing something like the UK's grounds for terminating her citizenship.

The US has unjustly terminated citizenship, too. US citizen Emma Goldman was deported as punishment for advocating resistance to the draft.
