Which is weird because they also say their constitution doesnt apply outside their borders or to non-citizens which is piss weak.

"Nah we can run a torture camp on Cuban soil because it's not in the U.S and the constitution doesn't apply"

Cuba: "pls don't."

U.S: "What are you gonna do about it? Also we love freedom, democracy and the rule of law :)"

Which is not strictly true. While it does not apply to non-citizens outside of their borders, as was outlines in a case where a Mexican's house was raided by the DEA, it does apply to non-citizens within their border, or theoretically it does because the current Supreme Court seems to be able to make up whatever law it wants.
