”The new designation is meant to deter countries from illegally detaining US citizens and encourage them to release wrongful detainees that they have in custody.”


If a person is suspected of a crime and is detained but later cleared from suspicion by a court, does that count as a wrongful detention? If so, no countries will want to have american tourists or american workers in their countries, because if any of them becomes a suspect a of crime and is detained, then the country will be sanctioned by the US. lol
