Human rights groups have sounded the alarm over deteriorating conditions in the US, calling for increased protection for American visitors and nationals abroad. In a statement, the organizations cited rising xenophobia, increasing violence, and a perceived erosion of diplomatic support, warning that these trends pose a significant threat to the safety and security of US citizens traveling overseas. The White House, however, has pushed back against these claims, labeling them as "scare tactics" intended to undermine confidence in the country's global role. As tensions escalate between the administration and human rights advocates, the debate raises pressing questions about the US government's commitment to safeguarding its citizens and promoting human rights worldwide.
Groups warn of 'deteriorating human rights' in call for US visitors' protection; White House decries 'scare tactics'.
