US principles are that set of considerations which present the US with the maximum likelihood of advantages post agreement, and those agreements are subject to cancellation any time US political calculations change.

I’m only responsible for what my regime does, as that is my charge as a US citizen. I favor keeping out of other peoples’ business when it comes to policy.
