If U.S ambassador Jackson Macdonald made thsi statement, I think we need to
compile all of the human rights violations the decrees and other bills to
silence the media and send it ot him with a protest letter, and ask him
whether if those things occurred in the United States, ,he would consider it
significant progress towards democracy.
