Countries enforcing race or gender diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies will now be at risk of the Trump administration deeming them as infringing on human rights.
The State Department is issuing the new rules to all US embassies and consulates involved in compiling its annual report on global human rights abuses.
The new instructions also deem countries that subsidise abortion or facilitate mass migration as infringing on human rights.
The changes, which the State Department says are intended to stop “destructive ideologies”, have been condemned by rights campaigners who argue the Trump administration is re-defining long-established human rights principles to pursue ideological goals.
In other words the jigs up.
