I can’t get into the US as a tourist without a visa, even though I’m a EU citizen, not sure how internationalist the US really is. Maybe from the inside the perspective is different.


The US requires visas, therefore it is hardline nationalist? The US has free trade and (usually) an essentially open border with Canada, so does that make the country hardline internationalist? Which is it?

Using extremes makes any analysis impossible.


Yes, restricting access to your territory to actual international people makes you less of an internationalist country, I fail to see the contradiction in that.


> restricting access to your territory to actual international people makes you less of an internationalist country

Now we've backed away from the US being hardline nationalist to 'less internationalist'.

Still, the requirement is completely open borders? It gets silly.
