I’d say, why not say that also for drug cartels? The only reasonable argument that comes to my mind is that some big cartel head might have local government influence, but that does not apply to Kim and New Zealand, right?
Another possible argument would be that the damage has been done elsewhere. But in the case of the dtug cartel, if there are victims in 20 countries that why would any third party have priority for enforcing their law?
That's not really relevant. No one is arguing priority. "Priority" implies there's 20 countries fighting to prosecute someone and we need to resolve it. In this case, it was a cooperation between multiple countries who agreed someone needed to be prosecuted, regardless of which country did it.
Because New Zealand is willing to and he broke the law in the U.S. as well? Why would there be an argument at all?
You were criticizing someone's argument and brought up two points of your own that don't make sense to me. Drug cartel members DO get extradited.
There's a bunch of these people extradited all the time.
