    Honduras is classified as a "Significant" potential impact on U.S. interests in the coming years.



    It seems Canada is "Minimal." >

    That and the usual terrorism related interest in a minimal level of inter-governmental relations.

    So there you go.

    I'm not surprised. US foreign policy is quite selfish and always revolves around our best interests. If that means supporting dictators who kill their own citizens, we'll do so quite willingly. We don't give a damn about human rights unless it's to our advantage.

    US foreign policy is void of all morality.
