37. Opposition to extraditing any American, I believe the typo is "them"
The idea that no American should be extradited if indicted in another country is, of course, untenable.
We have extradition treaties and they are upheld as law, because treaties are law.

It would be controversial to have an extradition request for a past CIA Director, or a Vice-President or President.
One of the thing the Junior has done is seal the records of Senior because the records may have evidence of criminality.
I would expect politization of justice to kick in if Senior was sought for trial while Junior is still in charge of the Junta.
