Recent developments have inspired doubts about the fidelity of the United States to its treaty obligations.

It concludes that, contrary to general perceptions, actual U.S. practice is still largely compliant but that certain statements from each branch of the federal government indicate a new and troubling disrespect for U.S. treaty obligations.
