Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.
Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo
Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting
Deeply unserious people
Having an oppressive bureaucracy is when the head of state is able to take time off his busy schedule to personally meet with you.
Umm have you considered authoritarianism Orwell 1984? Exercising power is bad, we must let our enemies steamroll us and let the state completely fall apart while being targeted by the US, for that is the ultimate expression of freedom
some annoying random american, no less
