💨 Abstract

The U.S. State Department released a scaled-down annual report on global human rights concerns for 2024. Conducted before President Trump's second term, it underwent significant revisions post-inauguration. Key changes include reduced criticisms of allies like El Salvador and increased focus on deteriorating rights conditions in Western nations. The report omits detailed sections on various abuses, such as violence against women and corruption. Functionaries such honesty but all mention worried over a shift in focus and reduced data.
