I like this mental gymnastics - we have priduced this toxic shit, we refuse to recylce it and ship it to a place where we know it will end up in ocean, and now its someone else's problem.

The west is good at many things, but from slave trade to the oil industry, responsibility and respect for locals was never among them.

The mental gymnastics is thinking Asian countries has no agency or ability to control what they buy or how they manage their waste.

A bit of legal advice, if you know you are facilitating a crime for personal gain, you are likely guilty of a crime. A judge will take dim view of your excuse about the killer or money launderer having his own "agency".

Do you really think these imports are legally clean, they haven't greased a few palms at the customs? You can import anything into Russia if you bribe the right guy.

I bet that if we investigated even just the western side of the trash export industry, we will fund it to be a corupt crine-ridden cesspool

Dispensing unsolicited legal advice is not an argument.

Abdication of responsibility is not an argument
