Questions

The Ministry of Public Health and the Ministry of Immigration of the

Democratic People’s Republic of Paldea
● Human rights are universal and inalienable. They apply equally, to all
people, everywhere, without distinction. How can the deportation law be
valid when it is violative of the fundamental human right that is the right of
a person from inhuman treatment and the right to a free trial?
○ Were there measures put in place to ensure the safety and rights of
the deported citizens of non-Paldean descent?
● Is there really a need to completely and permanently deport all individuals
who are not of Paldean descent? There is also the alternative of creating an
emergency law that will be valid from its enactment up to the time that
conditions have changed, where it will only segregate all individuals
afflicted with the disease. Is there any reason why deportation is the only
answer?
○ Are you not just using the Covid-19 situation as a reason to achieve
your claim/belief of national identity and purity?

the COVID-19 situation?
