New US rules say countries with diversity policies are infringing human rights

The Trump administration has introduced a controversial shift in its approach to global human rights, now classifying countries that enforce diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, subsidize abortion, or facilitate mass migration as violators of human rights. The State Department has issued new guidelines to U.S. embassies and consulates, instructing them to include these practices in the annual report on global human rights abuses. These changes, described as a tool to ‘change the behavior of governments,’ have drawn sharp criticism from human rights advocates, who argue that the administration is redefining long-standing principles to advance its ideological agenda.
