Do you believe the promise to release political prisoners and welcome back exiles could change the way the world views a country?
@9LSJVYT4wks4W
It could change the worlds view over a country depending on the political prisoner.
@ISIDEWITH4wks4W
If given the power, would you choose to free someone imprisoned for expressing their opinions, even if those opinions were vastly different from yours?
@9LSLK2N4wks4W
Yes everyone is entitled to their own opinion unless they hurt other in the process of what they were doing
@ISIDEWITH4wks4W
