More accurately I am in favor of respecting individual and sovereign laws and believe in a consensual contract as the basis of relations.

BTW, since you brought it up, there is no universal equal protection under the law. From environmental laws to child labour to medical and safety laws, no two countries are equal.

"Free trade" as you've envisioned it, is just an illusion. I believe in "fair trade," based on consensual contracts.
