A lot of efforts were done on diplomatic side. But for sure can be done more, especially on the accountability side for gross human rights violations and weaponization of trust granted by western governments to the authoritarian regimes.

As always, there are multiple interests of many actors and it is normally those who has more determination, more knowledge /access for the information, including ability to abuse AML /CFT global law and resources win such sides. For this reason I see a threat for the western world, in the EU particularly, - it has approach not fight, but just disappear. In the US at least some percentage of people ready to fight back for their freedoms, not being colonized.
